S2E5 Finding Your Spiritual Personality with Melissa Ebken
Manage episode 407385527 series 3560695
What does it mean to have a "spiritual personality?" Do you know yours? And where exactly are you on your spiritual journey?
Melissa Ebken, host of the Pursuing Uncomfortable podcast, coach, and pastor (definitely not your typical pastor!) will help you define which of the 4 spiritual types you lean toward: sage, feeler, mystic, or advocate. Advancing the work of Corrine Ware on spiritual types, Melissa breaks down each type and explains how understanding your type can help you to make the most of your spiritual practices.
We also delve into:
- How knowing your type will help you to identify the parts of you that need healing in order to serve your spiritual growth and the world around you better.
- How each type is dynamically connected to another with the intention to help you grow.
- The example of journaling and how each type might journal based on their motivation for seeking.
- James Fowler's "Five Stages of Faith," which is similar to Maslow's hierachy of needs but translates to spiritual development.
- The importance of knowing context of scripture before making an assumption as to its meaning.
- The uniting spiritual thread that ties every human being together is that our body, mind, and soul is one entity and we each have that one entity in common.
