My Confirmation teacher in the 80s taught us this. She was New Age-y. She left the Church and started practicing Reiki. I too left the church to become pagan/New Age soon after Confirmation. 😢 But the Lord brought me back to Catholicism❤
Same thing happened to me! In fact, the first ouija board I ever saw was at her home (her daughter was a friend of mine) and she told me I must be a “new soul” because I hadn’t personally experienced deja vu. In a near death experience I was given a “history lesson” and specifically instructed by my great grandparents (in heaven) to find a Latin mass near me…I’ve been going ever since.
Bryan, in the times where I live where priests' homilies seem to treat morality with trepidation, cowardice, or great mildness, your presentations, by contrast, are delivered with passion as if God's moral truth actually matters. It's like they don't recognize the perils of widespread immorality around us, whereas you're a spiritual fireman who exclaims "Fire!" amid the flames of immorality that permeate our culture. What a relief it is to listen to your videos! Blessings upon you, your family, and your staff.
@@daveignatiusatienza3226 Agreed. Both clergy and laity must put God first. If they put God first they will love each other better according to God's will and to Hell with people-pleasing politics!
I am attending an International Church of Christ, but my studies currently have me FIXATED on the Catholic Church. Because of these scriptures: 1Peter3.15, 2Tim2.15, 1Tim4.16, and Prov25.2, I am interested in seeking wholeheartedly to determine if Catholicism is true! I thank you for you videos brother, and God willing I will be able to meet with clergy soon to ask questions!
My son's girlfriend is Church of Christ and studying the Catholic Church. I am curious how it will go for you. She is having a hard time and it is taking a long time. they are 29 and 27.
Same here!! I first heard about it back in my Protestant days. Almost every Protestant I knew was really into it. And as an ex new ager I thought it was very strange. It just didn’t sit right with me…thankfully many Protestants have exposed it for what it truly is!

Thank you Brayan for explaining this so well. At work make us do that every year at the beginning of the year. They said because we have to know our self better and for us to work in what we need to work in to have a balance.
The enneagram is really popular among non-denominational Christians. My wife works for a non-denominational church and their spiritual director told her that the enneagram came from catholic monks so they thought it had a Christian origin. it might be helpful for some self-awareness, but I encounter people who treat it more like an astrological sign than a tool for improvement. They justify overly competitive and hard headed ways because “I’m an 8”. Kinda like people justifying the same behavior because “I’m an Aries”, as if there is nothing that can be done about it.
Please do a video on Gurdjieff and his teaching. My grandmother lost her son in a car accident and drifted away from the Church and began following his teachings. She always talked about him with me saying he had a very interesting life as at one point he was taught by an orthodox priest and wrote many curious titles like Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson
Colombian Catholic here, when I was a teenager dad showed me such enneagram. Nowadays he is a JWs partitioner, so he had to throw away such book. Funny to think that he maybe used that book claiming to have theologic info.
Okay, so nothing unorthodox has happened to the seven deadly sins that I may have missed whilst skiving off in school - the 'nine' deadly sins is simply the creators' reference to personality types. I'd never heard of an Enneagram before clicking on this video. From what Bryan (the presenter) explained, it sounds like it deserves a massive body swerve from any serious Catholic. From any serious Christian, actually, regardless of their denomination. Who needs a diabolical disc to instruct them how to work on their flaws anyway? That's what family and/or friends are for, right?
Wow. Thank you for that, just what I needed. I also thought the Enneagram had a catholic root or was even invented by catholics!?? If it‘s true what you say I will no longer „use“ it in the future. Could you give me the link of the church comment you mentioned at the end? Thanks and God bless you❤
Gurdjieff brought us the Eanagram, until this day nobody knows where he got his teachings. I don't think we have to guess where he got it from. His best student Ouspensky broke with him because he thought he was a deceiver. Ouspensky on his deathbed he told his students to forget about Gurdjieffs fourth way and go to mount Athos the Greek Orthodox Monastery.
Yes, I have heard of the enneagram and was told it had something to do with the so-called new-age movement, and I lost interest quickly after that. After watching this video, I went back to the graphic at 1:30 and paused the frame. At first, I see a circle and a triangle inside it, and the numbers 3, 6, and 9 points to The Holy Trinity. 9 for God The Father, 6 for Jesus, His Son, and 3 for The Holy Spirit. Looking again at the big empty area in the center, I put The Blessed Mother in the center overlapping the 3 to 6 line. Now remove all the numbers and words and pray The Rosary.

@@karasaunty9823 Yeah, the whole video is a retort to the idea that Enneagrams are Catholic. The author should do a better job at making that clear in the beginning. He probably doesn't know how the "internet" works, not everyone is going to watch every video in completion.

I agree especially with your comment about priest homily. Priest's have become people pleasers with their homilies instead of setting people right.

I had a priest recommend the enneagram. I bought a cassette tape on it and immediately saw that it was bunk!
Thank you, interesting!

I heard of this symbol but didn’t know that’s what it symbolizes, I heard lukewarm Christian’s call it a pentagram for Christian’s.

Nine deadly sins? Surely there are only seven? There was when I was at school (admittedly, decades ago...)!

Our intention was to say that there were only 7 at the beginning, but for some reason, we forgot to mention it when it came around.
Enneagram is NOT Catholic
And?, Greek philosphy was not and was puricifed by St. Agustine and St. Thomas Aquinas. The thing is to purify any thing in Christ and his Church.
❤❤❤❤😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏
Never heard but sounds too new age to me.
It is usefull but puricifed about all the pagan inlfuences.
its pagan and new age. dont use it.
Well that's new. Lol
The 7 "deadly sins" aren't actual sins, they are dispositions that lead you to sin.
That are actually sins though. Like, lust and pride and greed are envy, for example.
