Average rating4
Ignorance is bliss -- except in self-awareness. What you don't know about yourself can hurt you and your relationships -- and even keep you in the shallows with God. Do you want help figuring out who you are and why you're stuck in the same ruts? The Enneagram is an ancient personality type system with an uncanny accuracy in describing how human beings are wired, both positively and negatively. In The Road Back to You Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile forge a unique approach -- a practical, comprehensive way of accessing Enneagram wisdom and exploring its connections with Christian spirituality for a deeper knowledge of ourselves, compassion for others, and love for God. Witty and filled with stories, this book allows you to peek inside each of the nine Enneagram types, keeping you turning the pages long after you have read the chapter about your own number. Not only will you learn more about yourself, but you will also start to see the world through other people's eyes, understanding how and why people think, feel, and act the way they do. Beginning with changes you can start making today, the wisdom of the Enneagram can help take you further along into who you really are -- leading you into places of spiritual discovery you would never have found on your own, and paving the way to the wiser, more compassionate person you want to become. - Publisher.

I'm a 9w1. Super insightful. It has truly changed the way I communicate and empathize with my wife (she read it too) and my co-workers. It was very revealing, and I learned so much about my own personality.
Engaging and helpful for perusal if you want to have fun figuring out where you fall on the Enneagram.
I really enjoy learning about personalities, and this book was fascinating! I learned a lot and think the enneagram is a very useful tool in relationships and self-discovery. I thought the structure of the book was helpful and covered everything well. And the wit made for an enjoyable read, even when discussing the weaknesses of each type.
If you like personality tests or want to learn more about yourself and the people around you, I recommend this book. It's a great introduction to the enneagram.
