The Christian Guide To The Enneagram: Why We Think And Act The Way We Do (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781451564815)

I was an Investigator on a multi jurisdictional Drug Task Force. I was also the Youth Minister at a growing Church with a large, vibrant Youth Group. I was in law enforcement for 16 years and ministry for over 10. I have a degree in Biblical Studies from Andersonville Baptist Seminary and I am a licensed and ordained minister. I am continuing my education in Christian Counseling at this time. Depression and inactivity took over my life to the point where I could not function at all. I had no motivation to do anything. It was a battle just to get out of bed. At one point, I thought that I would have to live on disability and never be able to hold a job. I considered suicide. Depression destroyed my career, my ministry, my marriage and my life. Yet somehow I recovered, started over from scratch and built a new life. I finally pursued what I was truly passionate about and found purpose in my life. I set goals and reached them. I developed the Create, Connect, Commit process to beat depression and create enduring change. Whatever you want to change this process will work for you. I tried self help, professional help, church and counseling, nothing worked. This process was born out of the desperate need I had to create something that worked. After trying everything else and failing, I decided I had to fix my problems myself. I researched change, psychology and depression. I learned about how the mind works and the psychological barriers to change. I looked for the common denominator in programs that were successful in helping people change. I kept what worked and discarded everything else. In the end I was left with Create, Connect, Commit, the process for changing anything. Combining CCC with the insight from the Enneagram of personality, I began counseling people with depression, the fear of failure, co-dependency and a host of other psychological problems that have at their core a common root; the inability to change. Books include; Change Anything; How I Beat Depression and the Process I Used to Create a New Life, Create, Connect, Commit to God and The Christian Guide to The Enneagram; Why We Think And Act The Way We Do.
