Minister’s Class ~ Spiral Dynamics

Mondays 
1:00 p.m.

Learn how you can contribute to the continuing evolution of consciousness through a deep dive into the Spiral Dynamics model with Rev. Doris Hoskins. This class will be held on Mondays at 6:30 p.m., beginning on February 20. It is shared on a love offering basis. It will be held in Friendship Hall and via Zoom. (For the Zoom link, contact the church office.

This class is based on the book, “Spiral Dynamics: Mastering Values, Leadership, and Change,” by Don Beck and Christopher C. Cowan. (You do not need to purchase the book to attend the class.)

Spiral Dynamics is an evolutionary model that documents various eras in human history and the forces that were at work in our society. “Spiral Dynamics is giving rise to a profound clarity of insight into the sweeping patterns of human psychologies, beliefs, and values that are, often unconsciously, guiding our choices and shaping our very identities,” writes Beck. 

This class will discuss:
The eight stages of social development.
The values, economic, and political models described by each stage.
How this knowledge allows us to appreciate and tolerate our differences, and live in oneness.
Understanding the Spiral at work in our individual lives and in our relationships.

Minister’s Class ~ The Enneagram 

Mondays
1:00 pm beginning March 27th

The ancient Greek aphorism, “Know thyself,” attributed to Socrates, lends itself well to Unity’s 5th Principle, “We must live the truth that we know.”

Deepen your awareness of your Self through a deep dive into the Enneagram system with Rev. Doris Hoskins. This class will be held on Mondays from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m., beginning on March 27. It is shared on a Love Offering basis. It will be held in Friendship Hall and via Zoom. (For the Zoom link, contact the church office, unityontheavenue@gmail.com.) 

The Enneagram is a system of personality typing that describes the nine different patterns regarding how people interpret the world and manage their emotions. Widely used in spiritual direction, it is used as a way of understanding personality, addiction, relationships, and vocation. 

The Enneagram’s purpose is to help us uncover the traps that keep us from living fully and freely as our True Self so that we will use our unique, authentic gifts for the good of others and the world.

Father Richard Rohr’s YouTube lectures will form the basis of each class and will drive class discussion. You may watch the videos on your own or with the class. The class text will be “The Wisdom of the Enneagram: The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual Growth for the Nine Personality Types,” by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson. 

“Since I learned about the Enneagram back in the ’90s, I have used it as a powerful tool for self-discovery and spiritual transformation used in conjunction with meditation and life in community with others,” says Rev. Doris. 

“Please do not take an Enneagram test prior to the class,” she cautions. “Most of us are not self-aware enough to answer the questions accurately.”
