Includes the 'Enneagram Test'.
The Enneagram is a tool for understanding one's personality and those of others. It draws on ancient wisdom and experience yet has found widespread acceptance in our modern, psychologically-sophisticated world. Richard Rohr has brought a special religious perspective to understanding and using the Enneagram, presenting it as a powerful means of conversion, liberation, and growth in the spiritual life.
Rohr has had extensive experience with the use of the Enneagram and gives a review of what the Enneagram is and the nine personality types that comprise it, and places it within a Christian context. He also discusses a range of topics from how to know one's type to how the Enneagram is perceived by psychologists, theologians, and those using it for pastoral care and spiritual direction. This is followed by a series of appraisals by experts in several fields.
Of special interest is the inclusion of a unique 115-question Enneagram test that can help a person discern his or her type.
