The Enneagram Type 5: The Investigative Thinker by Beth McCord
2.0
There just isn't a lot of value in this set of Enneagram books. I wanted to like it because I love the idea of each number having its own book but the problem is there was little more information than said in a brief chapter in other Enneagram books that cover much more general information. This means there is a bunch of filler material.
McCord decided that material filler would be any series of phrases about devotion to God one would get in a Sunday School, or typical evangelical church service. No one reading these Enneagram books is looking for light fluff material that might be the topic of the latest Joel Osteen, Max Lucado, or Rick Warren book.
Enneagram readers and thinkers are introspective, thoughtful, and self-aware and wanting to become more aware. We are not readers that want to hear "Christian fluff"... So Meh. That's all I can say... I'd much rather read Richard Rohr or someone who isn't trying to make the awesomeness of the Enneagram palatable by dumbing it down to evangelicals.
