Getting Real with Each Other and God {Podcast 304}

By

Does the idea of accountability scare the daylights out of you? Are you craving accountability, but not sure how to cultivate it? Do you struggle to get real with others, afraid that they may not be able to handle you? Maybe you feel like it’s not fair to “put that” on someone else.   We all come from different perspectives when it comes to sharing our personal struggles, especially with sin. But the Scriptures are clear that we are supposed to confess our sins one to another so that we may be healed. So what exactly does confession look like?…

No Matter What, You Are Not "As Is"

No Matter What, You are Not “As Is”

As is. That was the label imprinted on my mind and engraved into my heart. I felt like a cheap house-flip with a new coat of paint camouflaging worn down paneling and peel-and-stick tiles covering up old linoleum. While I could see in the distance the woman I believed God wanted me to become, actually getting there seemed impossible. I was a good girl in disguise, with hours devoted to going to Bible studies and trying new life-management methods hoping that I’d get a handle on my discontentment in my season of motherhood and get rid of the guilt and…

Understanding Your Personality and Making the Most of the Enneagram

Why We Need the Word of God More than the Enneagram

By

This post was originally published on February 6, 2019, with my full support of the Enneagram. However, in light of additional study and conviction, I no longer advocate for use of the Enneagram. The content below has been revised to explain my position.   Have you wondered what all the hype is about the Enneagram? Maybe you first heard of the nine-type (times infinity) personality assessment made popular by Ian Cron’s book, The Road Back to You.  Or maybe you’re like me and heard about the Enneagram years ago.
