Individual

With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, a spiritual director prayerfully invites a person to become more aware of God's presence and communication in the context of their daily lives.  Through deep attentive listening, attunement, and discernment, the director provides a sacred space for the individual (the directee) to respond and grow in intimacy with God.

FAQ

The Answers You Need

What do I talk about?

Our lives are multi-faceted. We have relationships, work, families, and time alone.  There are times we experience joy, dryness, question our life’s meaning, and wonder where we are headed.  We talk about your prayer life, the way you view God, your dreams, and where you struggle.  A question you might hear often is, “What has this been like to bring to God?" Or "How do you notice He has been present in the midst of it?”

Is Spiritual Direction for me?

Spiritual Direction is for anyone intentionally seeking to deepen their relationship with God.  A person has a wiliness to make time for regular periods of daily prayer, an openness to inviting God into daily life (blessings, challenges, and decisions), and to desire God to be prioritized above all things.

How do I get started?

When the stirring arises in you to consider Spiritual Direction, ask the Lord to reveal how you may like to begin.  Most start by meeting 1x a month for 45-50 minutes, others desire to meet more often.  Additionally, I invite you to review Preparation for the First Session.
