Enneagram Five: From Head Knowledge to Heart Connection | Sherri Hughes-Gragg

Series: Wholehearted Enneagram: A Year Through the Types | Type Five | Episode 4 of 4

Episode Description

What does it look like when a Five stops hoarding what she knows... and starts giving it away?

Amy closes Type Five month with Sherri Hughes-Gragg, a Christian author and Bible teacher, who joins for one of the most theologically rich conversations of the year. Sherri has spent her career doing what Fives do best: going deeper than anyone else into the culture, history, and geography of Scripture, and then bringing back everything she found as a gift for others.

Together, Amy and Sherri explore what it looks like when the Five’s extraordinary interior life stops being a place of retreat and becomes a place of offering, and what it means to linger in the Savior’s presence when your instinct is always to study, prepare, and observe.


In this episode:

  • Why the Five’s love of depth and research is not just an intellectual gift, it’s a spiritual one
  • What it actually costs a Five to take what she’s studied in private and offer it publicly
  • What the Five most needs to hear about presence
  • The difference between studying God and being known by Him, and why that distinction matters most for the Five
  • A word for every Five who has been preparing to step forward… and is still waiting until she knows enough


You have more to give than you know. And you don’t have to retreat to be safe.
