We have a wide variety of experience in congregational ministry, academia, and non-profit work. This, along with doctoral work in missional and spiritual formation has equipped us to consult with churches and other organizations as they navigate the tumultuous waters of contemporary culture. 

SPIRITUAL DIRECTION

Our lives are filled with movement and noise. We often struggle to find the time and space to genuinely pay attention to our inner life... our own thoughts, fears, hopes, and desires. Spiritual direction helps us redeem time and create space for much needed introspection.


Spiritual direction is the ancient practice of sitting alongside someone as they seek to discover the ways that God is moving in their life. Through reflective questions and faithful listening the director serves not as a counselor or one who "fixes." Instead, the director sits with the directee as one who listens and helps discern the movement of the Divine.  As certified directors, Kevin and Shelly are faithfully present to the directee and help him or her pay attention to the movement and direction of God.


Those who seek direction may do so because of some major crisis or to find assistance with a significant decision. However, many seek direction simply to help them grow in their awareness of God's activity and calling upon the normal, everyday moments of their life. Regardless of what might cause you to pursue spiritual direction, this new journey is one of grace, peace, beauty and wonder as you encounter the Divine nature of God in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. 

"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit round and pluck blackberries.”


- Elizabeth Barrett Browning
