I am running python V3.6.8 on Mojave and the most current version of that branch is 3.6.10, however I can't find any information on how to upgrade from 3.6.8 to 3.6.10.

On python.org there are no dmg files for either 3.6.9 or 3.6.10, so how do I upgrade to 3.6.10 to pickup the latest security patches.

There is a reason why I don't want to move out of that branch, otherwise I would just download the latest release.

Thanks

The version of Python bundled with macOS will update only on OS updates. If you want to stay up-to-date with I would recommend going down the Brew method described in the link provided by pm-r​.
