Trinity Colored Identity Discovery Inventory℠

Is NOT about personality labels. Rather, it highlights recurring patterns of expression through which the Imago Dei—the divine image placed within every person—is revealed.

Each person tends to express both their wounded or healed identity through their innate dispositions, relational styles, and natural preferences.

Insights from temperament theory and personality research can help illuminate these patterns. However, within Trinity Anchored Formation, these tools remain descriptive, not definitive—they do not define who a person is.

In Catholic anthropology, identity is received from God through the Imago Dei and renewed in Christ.

The Trinity Anchored ID℠ framework simply offers a lens for recognizing how this God-given design often manifests in the ways a person communicates, relates, loves, and serves within the Body of Christ.

Over time, these natural relational patterns can be healed, ordered through virtue, and transformed by grace, allowing the Image of God to shine more fully as the person is conformed to Christ and participates more deeply in His divine life

ADVICE FOR TAKING THE TRINITY COLORED ID INVENTORY℠

1. Think of who you are MOST OF THE TIME in MOST SITUATIONS (not just at work, think about all situations, including home & socially)

2. Do not select the words or descriptive answers as you:

Desire to be
Have learned to be
Think you should be
Think someone else would say you are

Select the words or descriptive answers that represent who you REALLY ARE -- the accuracy of the inventory results are dependent upon your self-awareness.

3. As you select words or descriptive answers from each section, you may experience some tension; you may feel you can identify with all the choices -- this is normal, most people feel the same way.

4. Relax and do not overthink your choices. There are no right or wrong answers; often, your initial response is your best.

5. Try and take the assessment when you are rested. Accuracy will depend on a non-stressful, non-rushed environment.

PLEASE REMEMBER...

No single tool, model, or framework can fully capture the complexity of the human person—mind, body, and soul. However, when placed in right relationship to truth, these tools can serve us well by offering language, bringing awareness, revealing patterns, and creating a safe starting point. In doing so, they help a person BEGIN naming, claiming, and taming what makes them human, taking the first steps toward healing and transformation in Christ—not to define who they are, but to help them become who they were created to be.

OUR POSITION ON THE ENNEAGRAM

We prayerfully discern the tools we use for our human and spiritual formation framework.

While the Enneagram is widely used in contemporary personality and spiritual contexts, here at Trinity Anchored Formation, we have chosen NOT to use or promote the Enneagram within our human formation work.

Our framework is rooted in Catholic anthropology and formation principles. We prioritize tools that clearly support the integration of intellect, will, appetites, memory, and innate dispositions in cooperation with grace.

Over the years, various concerns have been raised within the Church regarding the Enneagram's origins, symbolic structure, and interpretive framework. In agreement with the Church’s document, ‘Jesus Christ The Bearer Of The Water Of Life’ we too believe, the Enneagram does NOT provide a reliable foundation for Catholic human formation. It is not a scientifically validated psychological assessment, nor was it developed within the tradition of empirical personality research. Its origins are rooted in occult practices, specifically "automatic writing", and its historical development is associated with principles that fall outside the Christian tradition.

For these reasons, Trinity Anchored Formation prioritizes formation tools that are clearly compatible with Catholic theology, sound psychology, and the Church's understanding of the human person.

Through the Trinity Colored ID™ framework, we draw on temperament theory and typological insights supported by decades of empirical research, integrating insights from Catholic anthropology and human formation to support authentic human and spiritual development.
