Review

“If you are serious about an honest practice of discernment this book is for you! Finding our way, while embracing our gifts and weaknesses, is not an easy task. But thanks to this good Enneagram work by Drew Moser the way is made easier. I highly recommend this new addition to the library of reliable and smart Enneagram wisdom.”–Suzanne Stabile, Author, The Path Between Us, Co-author of The Road Back to You, and host of The Enneagram Journey Podcast. “Drew writes on the enneagram with both clarity and conviction, not as a mere spectator gleaning from the sidelines, but a journeyman who has traveled the road thoroughly and brought back wisdom to share. I highly recommend this book to the enneagram student.”–AJ Sherrill, lead pastor, Mars Hill Bible Church, author, The Enneagram for Spiritual Formation “Drew resists the faddish enneagram-talk that tells people who they are, instead inviting each of us on a journey of discernment, exploring every obstacle to becoming our true selves, uncovering our unlived lives, and discovering our hidden vocation. This immensely practical gift holds the possibility of transformation, for yourself and for a hungry and hurting world. Savor it!”–Dr. Chuck DeGroat, author, When Narcissism Comes to Church; Professor of Pastoral Care and Christian Spirituality at Western Theological Seminary; therapist, spiritual director”In this work, Drew has curated a wonderful tour for how the enneagram can helpfully guide us all to deeper exploration of vocation, calling, and life passion. Drew’s writing style–like his teaching style–is both accessible and deep. New and longtime students of the enneagram will find gifts of wisdom in Drew’s pages.”–Hunter Mobley, enneagram teacher with Suzanne and Joe Stabile’s Micah Center in Dallas, Texas; Nashville-based pastor and attorney; author, Forty Days on Being a Two”This is a brilliant book! If you want to know and experience the life you desire to live, The Enneagram of Discernment delivers a map to get from here to there. You can read this book all at once but take your time. Dr. Drew’s work with college students, along with his keen intellect, palpable empathy, and instinctual wisdom, serves as a GPS for young and old alike. Savor the landscape. Search your inner terrain, the heights, depths, and breadth of your soul with Drew as a faithful guide to help you discover more of the magnificent life you are meant to live.”–Rev.

I appreciated the way he spoke of my dominant type (S
