    Spiritual Rhythms for the Enneagram

    A Handbook for Harmony and Transformation

    by Adele Ahlberg Calhoun, Doug Calhoun, Clare Loughrige, and Scott Loughrige
    Foreword by Jerome Wagner

    The Enneagram opens a remarkable window into the truth about us, enabling us to see how image, wounds, lies, triggers, and default responses shape us every bit as much as our faith.

    The Revelation to John

    A Commentary on the Greek Text of the Apocalypse
