In this episode, Adam Ormord is joined by Marilyn Vancil, a spiritual director and author of the newly released book, Beyond the Enneagram.
We are made by a relational God for relationship with God and others. God offers us a life centered in his love and lived out of the depth that centeredness provides.
In “The Posture of a Pilgrim,” chapter two of Beyond the Enneagram, we are invited to:
- Slow down
- Be expectant
- Pay attention
- Receive
Sharing from Scripture and her personal journey, Marilyn invites us into practices of awareness. God invites us into deeper relationship in the present moment. The good news, the gift of our salvation, is that we get to be in relationship with the God who longs to be in relationship with us.
