The Gift of Listening
Why Spiritual Direction?
Everyone has a story to be heard. Who is listening? Imagine an opportunity to be deeply heard. Your story. As you share it.
In the Midst of the Noise
Ponder 60 minutes per month of focused listening. Beyond the noise of our phones, screens, and hectic schedules. There's a whisper to be heard - that you may not even presently hear!
Safe and Sacred Space
Spiritual listening allows one to be guided to their hearts, where their inner voice resides. A safe and sacred space is offered for that voice to be acknowledged.
One Hour Each Month
Sixty-minute engagements as they become available. Reserve a monthly time.
In Person or Online
Sessions are held at the Church office or online. Face-to-face meetings are scheduled on Saturday mornings on the hour, starting at 6am CT, or Sunday afternoons on the hour starting at 1pm CT. All times are pending availability. Virtual meetings are reserved for Monday evening on the hour, starting at 6pm CT, pending availability.
Hearing Your Story
My directees range in age from 23 to 98 years. Everyone has a story to be heard. Spiritual listening involves trained gifts allowing the other to be heard at a deep, deep level. It is sacred and confidential time that is not teaching and is free of judgement. It is your opportunity to hear and be heard.
