89 | Enneagram & Relationships: Soo Ji & Joe

Megan and Deedra have the privilege of speaking with pastors Soo Ji and Joe Alvarez on the podcast! Soo Ji is an enneagram 3, and her husband Joe is an 8, so together they make for one dynamic couple. We talk about two two aggressive numbers in relationship and how that manifests in their working together and in their parenting.  We also discuss the impact of bringing four cultures together into their home (Soo Ji is Korean Canadian, and Joe is Mexican American) and how that plays out. 
Soo Ji and Joe Alvarez are a unique clergy couple who are being used by God to reach people in the margins, bring reconciliation to the community, and raise up passionate followers of Jesus Christ. They are both ordained with the Free Methodist Church and they have been dynamically married for 17 years. They are blessed to have two “Mexirean” kids, Juaquin, their 15 year old son and Nayara, their 13 year old daughter. Currently Joe and Soo Ji pastor at The Avenue, a multiethnic Free Methodist Church in Southern California. Joe is also a relationship builder for Empowering Lives International and Soo Ji is the Conference Director for Wesleyan Holiness Women Clergy and a Program Director for Innovative Space for Asian American Christianity.
