Active Practice

Description of Practice
Welcoming, Christ-centered spiritual direction for your spiritual journey. Do you long to know God in a deeper and more transformative way? Do you yearn for a place to talk about and process issues we don't generally discuss at church: fears, painful experiences, doubts, feeling stuck, not being able to “hear” God? I will provide safety, experienced companionship and support as you explore your questions and longings about God and your deepest self. Together we will listen for Spirit's movement in your life so you can respond in life-giving ways. Having experienced God's deep inner-healing in my life, I am able to assist others on that journey. My expertise: Immanuel Approach prayer, inner-healing prayer, the Enneagram, chronic illness, discernment, care-giving, scripture reflection, listening prayer, forgiveness, anger, aging. Sliding fee scale. Direction by Skype, telephone.

Brief statement
It is a powerful experience to be deeply heard, an opportunity to bring Light to unspoken places. Together we will listen to your life, to the places it is easy to perceive Spirit, as well as those that feel uncertain or confusing. Deep listening gives us the safety and space to notice and reflect on doubts, questions, experiences, blessings and invitations for how Spirit may be with you, active in your life and inviting you to step more fully into who you were made to be, and to stretch and discover new depths of trust, love and freedom. Listening, and noticing God's movement in our life, gives us the chance to respond to God and to grow: experiencing God more intimately; becoming stronger and more resilient; allowing the Spirit to heal our broken places and knit us together in new and beautiful ways; loving others, and the world, more deeply.
