Enneagram and Marriage

We work very hard to balance our self-preserving, sexual, and social instincts, but who are we outside of that - and more importantly, above these base instincts? Christa walks you through the higher virtues lying outside of the instincts today so that you cannot only keep balance amidst the lower-hanging fruit of the three instincts themselves but also keep a higher plain of goodness in your life.

Pornography is not always something people feel comfortable talking about, inside of marriage or out. This is most especially true within the church. Today Christa is joined by author Jessica Harris, Enneagram 4w5 (4-3 marriage pairing) as she both shares her story and discusses an important topic for couples, especially women who desire to find freedom and true healing from pornography. As we discss this pivotal topic that has been ignored in the church in many cases (often out of fear or not knowing what to say many times), we talk about ways we can hold one another with grace and love as we walk through and emerge from these binding struggles. We also talk about what Jesus had to say to the woman at the well, and most, what you can do to regain healing from your own struggles with this addiction, as well as lean in to support those struggling who may come your way.   Watch the Episode on YouTube!   Get Jessica's book right here   Visit Jessica's Beggar's Daughter website and study guide here   Join the E + M Membership right here!   Head on over to enneagramandmarriage.com to check out our membership and all of our Enneagram & Marriage freebies and resources!
