You know you need the Bible Reading Challenge when.... people in the church are giving themselves numbers and wings.
This is only possible when you have forgotten 2 Peter 1:3 in both concept and practice. We. Do. Not. Need. Self. Help.

My uncle says people like to come to the Word like we have a knife and it is a cat we are going to dissect. But that’s all backwards- we are the cat on the table, the Word is the knife. Coming to it regularly is to constantly practice being undone and remade.
The enneagram fools Christians into thinking they are in fact the one working on their own sanctification- making some master plan for bettering themselves or understanding others better.
Coming to the Word is not something we do to “work on ourselves.” It is where we go to be worked over. If everyone in your church is deep in it with the enneagram, I propose you change the subject by trying to get them deep in the Word instead.
Sat by a woman on a plane who was telling me about her church. The pastor was preaching through the enneagram. She said “Have you ever heard of the Road Back to You?!”
I did not show her a picture I had JUST taken of that book- in my fire.

I did, however, invite her to join the BRC. She mentioned that she didn’t have time for reading “theology and such.” Just time for pouring over selfology apparently. She isn’t unusual - invite your local enneagram lover to join you in the Word today!
