31 The Enneagram Secret (Part 1) - James Walker interviews Marcia Montenegro and Don Veinot


Listen Later

How did a New Age “spirit guide” named Metatron help inspire the Enneagram, a major fad currently sweeping American Christianity? This is just one of the questions we address in this week's episode of Apologetics Profile. In part one of this two-part podcast, we explore some preliminary subjects related to the Enneagram’s controversial history and practice:



  • What is the Enneagram and how does it work?

  • Is the Enneagram based on ancient, forgotten Christian practices or is it rooted in 20th century occultism?

  • Why has the Enneagram's secret origins made it so controversial?

  • Should Christians use the Enneagram as a spiritual path to their “true self”?


  • To discuss these questions, James Walker, president of Watchman Fellowship, interviews Marcia Montengro and Don Veinot, two of the coauthors of the 2020 book, Richard Rohr and the Enneagram Secret. Marcia is also the author of our 4-page Profile on the Enneagram (see links below).
