In my personal and professional work with the Enneagram, I have found it to be the most insightful tool on understanding the dynamics of the human personality and how particular patterns keep us from becoming the whole person we were designed to be. As a follower of Jesus, I am often asked the questions, "How does the Enneagram fit within the Biblical context?" and "How is it helpful for Christian transformation?" The answers to these questions are the topics of my upcoming teleclass on May 19th. I hope that you can join me. Click on "Register Now" for more information and how to sign up. I look forward to having you on the line!

Be aware of the Boat-Eaters!
While rafting down the Copper River in Alaska, our guide frequently pointed out 'boat-eaters.' These were whirlpools that swirled around and created a vortex which could quickly suck our raft down under, throwing us into the frigid waters where we would survive for only five minutes. These 'boat-eaters' were hard to spot. From a distance they were just swirls of water on the surface and didn't look particularly dangerous. But, the strength with which our guide pulled away from these areas indicated the pending peril if we were caught in the powerful grip of the vortex. He was able to direct our boat so that we could continue on the exciting adventure down the river. We were very grateful for his knowledge and skill, and that he was constantly on the alert.
