In his decades as a globally recognized teacher, Richard Rohr has helped millions realize what is at stake in matters of faith and spirituality. Yet Rohr has never written on the most perennially talked about topic in Christianity: Jesus. Most know who Jesus was, but who was Christ? Drawing on scripture, history, and spiritual practice, Rohr articulates a transformative view of Jesus Christ as a portrait of God’s constant, unfolding work in the world.

Story
In the first half of life, we are naturally preoccupied with establishing ourselves; climbing, achieving, and performing. But as we grow older and encounter challenges and mistakes, we need to see ourselves in a different and more life-giving way. This message of falling down - that is in fact moving upward - is the most resisted and counterintuitive of messages in the world's religions. Falling Upward offers a new paradigm for understanding one of the most profound of life's mysteries: how those who have fallen down are the only ones who understand "up".

Story
The enlightenment you seek in other religions has been present in Christianity from the beginning. Richard Rohr, a global leader in spiritual awakening, helps you recognize the forces (such as ego resistance and dual thinking) that separate you from your deeper self. Then, drawing from Gospels and the greatest Christian contemplatives, he shows you what it means to be spiritually awake. You will learn why your ego resists change and growth, what is useful about popular ideas such as the law of attraction, what Jesus, the first mythical leader in the West, can teach you.

Story
Franciscan priest Richard Rohr feels that there is no more challenging spiritual issue than the “problem of the self". Most of contemporary spiritual teaching, he believes, is still trying to inspire and fortify the private self, the autonomous "I". Even much church work is trying to evangelize and sacramentalize what many would call "the false self." Basic transformation is not expected, but merely a new set of beliefs and practices or loyal membership in a new group.

Story
In his best-selling book Falling Upward, Richard Rohr talked about ego (or the False Self) and how it gets in the way of spiritual maturity. But if there's a False Self, is there also a True Self? What is it? How is it found? This book likens True Self to a diamond, buried deep within us, formed under the intense pressure of our lives, that must be searched for, uncovered, separated from all the debris of ego that surrounds it. In a sense True Self must, like Jesus, be resurrected, and that process is not resuscitation but transformation.

The Sacred Enneagram is a trustworthy, richly insightful guide to finding yourself in the enneagram's 9-type profiles, and applying this practical wisdom for a life transformed. Far more than a personality test, author Chris Heuertz writes, the enneagram is a sacred map to the soul. Lies about who we think we are keep us trapped in loops of self-defeat. But the enneagram offers a bright path to cutting through the internal clutter and finding our way back to God and to our true identity as God created us.

interesting and humbling
The search for self is often hindered by the self. I identified with my number not through my strength but through my pain. The deceit we unknowingly live can cause us to miss the opportunity to know our self. To not know yourself causes that part of you to shout to be heard. So much of my struggle to this point in life is because of my lack of knowing myself.
thank you for helping me hear that part of me i denied.

I enjoyed the process of learning about the enneagram BUT it was tiring having to listen to the authors venerate Marxism, Communism, Environmentalism etc while painting capitalists, political conservatives and Americans as evil and something from which we must turn away.

Why?
I love Richard Rohr’s writings and his conversational style of teaching. Unfortunately the narrator completely destroys any hopes of actually paying attention to this book. Why deliberately pick someone who does not even come close to Richard’s delivery style?

A book that helps me understand the enneagram
I have read several books on the enneagram. This one helped me understand it. It showed the 9 personality types are connected and although we have dominant traits ultimately it’s they enneagram as a whole that influence our lives in personal and spiritual ways.

Not truly a Christian view
This is more like an enneagram book written with an eye cast toward Christianity. But it’s not an enneagram book written from a Christian perspective. For instance, and I could give more examples, but I’ll limit myself to two: I was disappointed when the spiritual exercise that was recommended for one type was zen meditation. Really? Zen meditation? I’m not not criticizing zen, But that’s certainly not a Christian practice, it’s Buddhist. One would think that two Christian clergy men could at least come up with a Christian form of prayer or other spiritual exercise that is historically Christian in a book that is supposed to be offering a uniquely Christian perspective of the enneagram.
Another example is that Saul Alenski is held up as a noteworthy example of Type (8?). Alenski was so far from being a Christian that he actually dedicated his book “rules for radicals” to none other than Lucifer himself! Could two Christian clergy men really do no better than to offer a practical satanist as an example to emulate in a supposedly Christian book? There’s plenty more of that sort of thing here.
That said, it’s not an all together bad book. There is some useful info here. Not a complete waist of time. But it could have been so much better.
