About Starting Spiritual Direction: A Guide To Getting
Product Description Are you about to start spiritual direction?Are you wondering just what you are getting into?Would you like to know how to get the most out of your sessions?In spiritual direction, two or more seekers enter sacred space to dream, explore, and discern a path toward personal wholeness and deeper intimacy with the Divine. Along the way, they talk about just about everything that happens in life—work, play, relationships, personal struggles—but always the question comes back to a central question: how is the Divine wooing us, calling us into deeper and deeper intimacy? This book is written specifically for new clients—sometimes called directees. If you are new to spiritual direction, then this book is written for you. In it you will find everything you need to know before stepping into a spiritual direction session for the first time. By the time you finish it, you will have a good grasp on what this ministry is about, what you can expect in a session, what you can expect from your spiritual director, and how to make sure you make the best use of your time. Review "This book is an important resource for enquiring and newer clients of spiritual direction. Rev. Dr. John Mabry skillfully and with heart explains the practice of spiritual direction so that any curious soul will feel prepared to embark on a journey into their inner world. It is a useful book, not because it is the only one of its kind, but because Mabry clearly explains what spiritual direction is and sets the foundation of expectations." --Jeanette Banashak, PhD, EdD, co-founder and co-director of The Spiritual Guidance Training Institute About the Author The Rev.
