What is Spiritual Direction?

Spiritual direction is an adventure toward knowing one’s own soul and our divine Maker through a confidential spiritual relationship with a companion who ministers through listening, prayer, and questioning in order to celebrate the good and struggle with the bad in ways that impact one’s soul.

Take the next steps to seek spiritual direction in your life.

“The assumption of spirituality is that always God is doing something before I know it. So, the task is not to get God to do something I think needs to be done, but to become aware of what God is doing so that I can respond to it and participate and take delight in it.”

— Eugene Peterson,
