Deep dives
The Influence of Enneagram on Worldview and Identity
The Enneagram is discussed as a tool influencing one's worldview and identity. It challenges the idea of inherent sin and emphasizes tracing behaviors to external influences rather than personal responsibility. The focus is on finding one's 'true self' and achieving personal enlightenment, diverging from traditional Christian beliefs of sin and redemption. This shift in perspective presents a potential danger of diminishing the need for a savior within the Enneagram framework.
