IGNORANCE IS BLISS— EXCEPT IN SELF-AWARENESS. WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOURSELF CAN HURT YOU — and your relationships, and how you make your way in the world. It can also keep you in the shallows with God. Do you want help figuring out who you are and why you repeatedly stumble into the same self-defeating patterns? Consider the ancient personality type system called the Enneagram. This unique, narrative-based approach allows you to see and experience the world through the eyes of people who represent each of the Enneagram types. That it’s funny and full of stories means you’ll keep turning the pag- es long after you read the chapter on your own number. Beginning with the changes you can start making today, the wisdom of the Enneagram can help you get on the road that will lead you to your best and truest self.
THE ENNEAGRAM’S UNCANNY accuracy in describing how human beings are wired, both positively and negatively, has spiked its popularity in recent years. Although others have explored its con- nections with Christian spirituality, not until Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile forged the approach in this book has there been such a practical, comprehensive and approachable way of accessing Ennea- gram wisdom. The Road Back to You is rooted in this approach to formation, which Thomas Merton described as the one challenge on which all of life rests: to discover our true selves in discovering God, and to find more of God in finding more of our true selves. As you discover yourself in a new way on this Enneagram journey, you’ll also find that you are paving the way to the wiser, more com- passionate person you want to become. THE ROAD BACK TO YOU
