The Sacred Enneagram with Christopher Heuertz

Podcast: Are You Real
Host: Kasey Fuller
iTunes

On Episode 109 of Are You Real Purpose Host Jon Fuller talks to the Author of The Sacred Enneagram Christopher Heuertz. Christopher has spent the last 25 years of his life in the Non- profit sector. He has volunteered with Mother Teresa as well as started one of the first pediatric aids care homes in South Asia for kids with HIV. Christopher went to a Christian Liberal Arts school, and originally thought he would end up in the church world, but a trip to Jerusalem open his eyes to suffering that allowed him to change his focus. Having this experience as a young person caused him to have to go back to scripture to see what the bible says about helping others in need. Christopher talks in depth about how he was impacted by Mother Teresa during those early years of his life, and reflects on the type of person she was. He says he has never again since then been in the presence of someone who has the depth and love she had. He says she threw herself into the mystery of the divine love, and realized it was beyond her. It was something remarkable and beautiful. She was a person that continued to say yes even when everything in her wanted to say no.

Christopher also talks about his intriguing book The Sacred Enneagram, and gives much insight into the different personality types, and why it is important to embark on the journey of self love. He says “We need to build the best of ourselves. Love our neighbor as ourself. Most of us don’t love ourselves well.” Chris also says that recognizing the sewers in our own souls that have been neglected or ignored are an important part of growth as a person. You don’t want to miss this in depth, exciting episode of Are You Real Purpose!!

Introducing the Enneagram with Chris Heuertz

Podcast: Contemplate This
Host: Tom Bushlack
iTunes

This bonus track is an edited snippet from my interview with Chris Heuertz for the Contemplate This! podcast, conversations on contemplation and compassion. My interview with Chris was so rich and in-depth that I wanted to break out this 7 minute section where he gives a very concise overview of what the Enneagram is – or better, how it functions as a tool for spiritual growth and integration – and he gives an incredible overview of the nine personality typologies, or as he calls them the nine paths to God. If you’re totally new to the Enneagram, or even if you’re not, this is one of the best quick introductions I’ve ever heard, and it seemed worthy of its own mini-episode. I hope you enjoy it, and after you listen here, head over to the full episode and dive all the way in with Chris’s wisdom on the Enneagram in the full podcast of episode 5 at thomasjbushlack.com/episode5. You will not be disappointed.

Interview with Chris Heuertz

Podcast: Contemplate This
Host: Tom Bushlack
iTunes

Chris Heuertz was introduced to the Enneagram by a friend in India and it radically changed his life – leading to a shocking and difficult awakening, a “severe mercy,” but one that led him on a journey of self-discovery and in-depth study of the Enneagram system and process of spiritual transformation. The wisdom of this journey is collected in his recent book, The Sacred Enneagram: Finding Your Unique Path to Spiritual Growth. This interview breaks open a deeper understanding of the Enneagram, which Chris approaches more as a process for understanding our energies and our path to God, rather than a psycho-spiritual personality typology. For those listeners not familiar with the Enneagram, I have compiled some introductory resources below, and the bonus track, “Introducing the Enneagram with Chris Heuertz” also provides a short (less than 10 min.) to the Enneagram and the nine points. Chris has spent his life bearing witness to the possibility of hope among a world that has legitimate reasons to question God’s goodness. Originally from Omaha, Nebraska, Chris studied at Asbury University in Kentucky before moving to India where he was mentored by Mother Teresa for three years. While living in India, he helped launch South Asia’s first pediatric AIDS care home – creating a safe haven for children impacted by the global pandemic. A forerunner in the New Friar movement, Chris and his wife Phileena served with the Word Made Flesh community for nearly 20 years, working for women and children victimized by human traffickers in the commercial sex industry. This has taken Chris to over 70 countries working among the most vulnerable of the world’s poor. In 2012 Phileena and Chris launched Gravity, a Center for Contemplative Activism. Named one of Outreach magazine’s “30 Emerging Influencers Reshaping Leadership,” Chris is a curator of unlikely friendships, an instigator for good, a champion of collaboration, and a witness to hope, Chris fights for a renewal of contemplative activism.

Host: Cathleen Falsani

Chris Heuertz, author of The Sacred Enneagram: Finding Your Unique Path to Spiritual Growth, joins Cath and Kell for an even deeper dive into the sacred wisdom of the Enneagram and the gift that “type” can be. “It’s not nine buckets that your soul gets dumped into, it’s a color wheel,” Chris says. Cath (a 4w3) says: “I’m a 4 with a 3 wing, but it’s like a special Nemo wing.” EVERYBODY NOW: Awwwwwwwwwww.

Chris helps us find the answer to the question so many of us have when we begin to dig through the Enneagram’s layers, connections, and applications:

Once you find your type, how do you work with it for your own spiritual wellbeing and contemplative practices?

Join us as we continue to unpack this fascinating ancient technology together. And please hit us up with follow-up questions on Twitter @TheShwell or on our site, TheShwell.com. We’ll revisit the Enneagram from time to time in the weeks and months ahead.
