SOUL CARE
"​Do you want to live? The same voice that spoke green things into existence spoke in the accent of Nazareth, promising if we lose our lives we will find them. Christ is our perfect gardener...." - Christie Purifoy
​
Like gardens, our hearts must be constantly tended, weeded, nurtured, and maintained if we are to grow in knowledge and love of God, self, and others. ​Spiritual Direction is a relational process in which a trained spiritual guide listens to and companions someone who desires a deeper relationship with God. For Christians, this means becoming more like Jesus Christ.

Why Spiritual Direction?
I will come alongside you prayerfully, reflectively, and compassionately. My goal is to help you pay closer attention to God's voice and presence in your life, respond to God, grow in greater freedom as the person God created you to be, and live out your relationship to God in your everyday life. Spiritual direction is particularly helpful for:
-
Decision-making

Life change

Discerning calling or vocation

Deconstructing/reconstructing faith
