The Gospel for Improvers: A 40-Day Devotional for Honest, Responsible Perfectionists: (Enneagram Type 1) (Enneagram Series)

" … Tyler simply, beautifully, and clearly weaves God's Word, pointed questions, personality insight, and also the grace-filled message of the gospel … " — Dr. Todd Engstrom, executive pastor of The Austin Stone What if you didn’t have to be perfect to be good? For the Enneagram One—the Improver—life is all about making everything better. While our increasingly chaotic and careless world needs your integrity and hardworking discipline, sometimes your need for perfection causes you to get frustrated, overwhelmed, and overworked. Certified Enneagram Coach and pastor, Tyler Zach, offers this 40-day devotional to help you hear from God and actualize your full potential by finding clarity on who you are and where you’re going. Inside, you’ll discover how to enjoy every moment, go with the flow, pursue progress over perfection, practice self-care without feeling selfish, and let go of your frustration with the way life is and instead rest in the Perfect One who is making all things new. Be prepared to encounter a reliable God who perfectly understands you and invites you into His “good life” filled with joy, optimism, and unexpected surprises.

Whether you are new to the Enneagram or have studied it for years, we know that you'll find lasting value in this book. On these pages, Tyler's creative wisdom shines, and his focus always remains on Jesus." — Beth & Jeff McCord, co-founders of Your Enneagram Coach, best-selling authors of Becoming Us: Using the Enneagram to Create a Thriving Gospel-Centered Marriage " 'Do you realize that others can see God more clearly through your personality?' While that quote lacks the full context of Tyler Zach's reflection on Genesis 1, the question itself stopped me in my tracks. It's one example of many throughout his writing that provoke reflection for a Type 1 like me. But more than reflection, the insightful writing and use of Scripture helped me grow. Tyler simply, beautifully, and clearly weaves God's Word, pointed questions, personality insight, and also the grace-filled message of the gospel that can help you grow as well. Thanks for writing a great devotional Tyler!" — Dr. Todd Engstrom, executive pastor of The Austin Stone "This devotional confirmed and affirmed everything that God has been speaking into me and all that therapy has been teaching me in this season.
