ENNEAGRAM CERTIFICATE PROGRAM

Enneagram Triad Circle.png
“I found the Enneagram Certificate Program not only applicable in my practice as a spiritual director, but discovered a deeper appreciation for the complexity & beauty of every individual. Rather than minimize a person in light of an assessment tool, this course enlarged God’s presence, activity & love in the process of becoming our truest selves. I came away from this course gratefully appreciative for the training, the experiential wisdom of Doug & Adele, & the spiritual depth of our interactions as a cohort.”

The Enneagram can be a powerful tool for those who are called into the ministries of one-on-one soul care & guidance. It provides a non-judgmental lens through which we can look at our lives & relationships to God, self, & others. As a spiritual director, counselor, pastor or life coach, helping a person identify their number is only the beginning. This certificate program is designed for those with a working knowledge of the Enneagram who are wanting to go deeper & to be equipped in the use of this tool in their call & ministries. 

Facilitated by Revs. Doug & Adele Calhoun, this certificate program is designed to instruct practitioners how to appropriately use the Enneagram as part of their ministry. This training program will help you learn:

  • How your own type impacts your listening & guidance

  • Spiritual practices appropriate to each number

  • How to use the Harmony Triads in transformation

  • How to use the Harmony Triads in discernment

  • How to use the WEPSS (Wagner’s Enneagram Personality Style Spectrum) assessment for a one-on-one session.

Revs. Doug & Adele Calhoun are Motions of the Soul: iEnneagram Practitioners & certified trainers in the WEPSS. They bring hundreds of hours of experience in the use of this tool. They have taught seminars for church staff, individuals, & with national church leaders in various countries. They will draw on their book on the Enneagram entitled Spiritual Rhythms for the Enneagram: A Handbook for Harmony & Transformation.

+ New to the Enneagram?

Are you a peacemaker? A reformer? Or perhaps you are the achiever? When are you at your best? When are you tempted to turn toward fear & anxiety, or move into a place of control? This & more the Enneagram will help you explore & discover.

The Enneagram is a unique personality tool in providing a valuable process of self awareness & understanding that can lead to a greater awareness of the gift of community. It describes 9 different character types that correspond to attitudes & behaviors affecting you & your relationships. Each distinctive character, or personality style, has its own way of viewing, construing, & responding to people & events. It clarifies how you organize your thoughts, perceptions, strengths, & defense mechanisms.

Following Jesus is all about transformation, becoming like Him & living like Him! Paul writes in Ephesians 4:22-24, You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self…& to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness & holiness. Where do you seem to get stuck in that critical process of “putting off the old self” (the false self) & “putting on the new self” (the true self in Christ)? What needs transforming in you?

The Enneagram offers profound insight into our heart motivations, & provides a way of seeing both the beauty of how God made you & the detours of behavior patterns & compulsions that can lead you toward sin & away from God.

Please note, you must complete an introductory training in the Enneagram prior to registering for this course
