Whether you are new and curious about the enneagram or a wing-knowing, subtype wielding veteran, this class, taught by Pastor Garret Shelsta will hold something for everyone. This ancient tool of the human personality will help you chart your unique spiritual pathway toward becoming formed in the image and likeness of Jesus.
Garret has been involved in Jesus centered faith communities for the last 17 years. His areas of interest are vast, and his time management skills are negligible. This mix of skills has had the effect of giving him a “C+” understanding in fields ranging from theology, philosophy, pop-culture, music, sociology, economics, human development, technology and politics. All this means that Garret has strong opinions about things he has a surface level understanding about thus making exciting dinner conversation. He has been leveraging the wisdom of the enneagram in leadership development and discipleship for the last 3 years and has seen God’s spirit not only use it transform him and his marriage but countless numbers of young adults in Whatcom County. He has B.A. degree in Biblical Studies from Azusa Pacific University and currently spends a majority of his professional time as the Pastor of Ekklesia, the college and young adults ministry of Christ the King Church in Bellingham, WA.
Garret is married to Aubrey and together they have 4 amazing littles.
Get ready to dig in to the deep and real – we talk body image, perfectionism, family dysfunction, and so much more. At our classes, workshops and retreats, we like to skip the surface-level parts and get right to the heart of what matters to us as women, whether we’re discovering our purpose, facing past wounds, or developing our leadership skills.
You’re going to want to come to a class, workshop, or retreat with a teachable spirit, a hunger to learn, your favorite notebook, and a pen with looots of ink so you can jot down all the revelations, action items, and realizations you have as you listen to our expert teachers and chat with other like-minded women.
