Spiritual Direction

At this time, I am not accepting new spiritual direction clients.

Spiritual direction is the process by which one Christian joins another on their spiritual journey to

listen, encourage, ask questions and notice the movements of God.

It is an ongoing sacred conversation about the deep work of the Trinity in your life.

 

 

  • Have you ever read something in the Bible that made your heart explode with intrigue or amazement? I'd love to hear more about that.
  • Do you long to deepen or heal your relationship with God? Let's explore what this might look like.
  • Do you feel like you are wandering around in a Dark Night of the Soul? I'll wander with you.
  • Ever wish you had someone you could process your faith and spiritual life with? I'm honored to hold a space for you to reflect in.
  • Want to discern the voice of the Holy Spirit as you face questions and confusing circumstances? I'll help you listen.

 

It’s as simple as that.

 

Think of it as sharing your spiritual journey with a friend who has a vested interest in helping you pay closer attention to the movements of God in your life.

 

Spiritual direction is a soul care ministry that is grounded in Scripture and has deep roots in church history, dating back to the 1st century. Today, spiritual direction is experiencing a revival as people seek to deepen their life with God.

 

My job as a spiritual director is to simply create an intentional and open space for you to reflect on your life, your story, your faith, your questions, your doubts, and how God works within it all. Think of me as a guide who asks intentional questions, and makes time for silence, prayer, and deeper reflection. I am simply a fellow companion on the journey who can come alongside you, pointing out landmarks along the way.

 

We will not try to solve problems, achieve goals or outline strategies for “success.” Rather, we'll look at what God is doing within problems and life circumstances and how He draws us towards Himself through it all. The Holy Spirit is the true "Director" during our time together. If I feel prompted, I may make an occasional suggestion or introduce you to a book, podcast, prayer practice, or spiritual discipline that you might find helpful.
