Don't know about seminary but St. Mark's Cathedral Seattle has a two day workshop coming up, "The Spiritual Approach to the Enneagram: A Map to Inner Wisdom," led by a clinical psychologist.

Or like the Myers-Briggs or other personality assessments which help us understand ourselves and yes, foster a sense of belonging. Humans seem to have an in-built need to group and categorize, sometimes harmlessly, and sometimes with catastrophic consequences.

Listening to Walter Mondale's tribute to President Carter, the sentence which they believed summed up their time in office: "We told the truth. We obeyed the law. We kept the peace." May they rest in peace and may we blessed to have such decent people in the White House again.

Just joined Bluesky. Left Twitter right after Musk bought it and messed with so many people's livelihoods. And it was apparently downhill from there.
