Forty Days on Being a Six

'When I discovered I was an Enneagram Six, I didn't want to be one.' Pastor Tara Beth Leach continues, 'I hated that I was marked by fear,' reflecting on how fear and anxiety can plague a Six-whether they are pulling back from or diving right in to the things that feel threatening. She explores what it means for her to be a redeemed Six who is allowing Jesus to transform her a little at a time. Whether you are a Six, have a Six wing, or have a friend or spouse who is a Six, you will find wisdom here as Tara Beth explores her own journey of deepening self-understanding through the Enneagram. To take you deeper, each of these forty daily readings concludes with a prayer, a spiritual practice, or a reflection question.
