Spiritual Direction
Offering companionship and presence as you engage your life and spiritual journey
Sometimes life leaves us reeling, whether from something like a health crisis, shifting relationships, or unexpected change. In the fallout, we may begin to wonder about ourselves, God, and the purpsose, meaning, or values that we once connected with. In those times, it can be lonely with no clear path for moving forward. Spiritual direction offers a place for connection, solace, and safety to be where you are, to say what needs said, and to begin to forge a path in this new, unknown terrain.
Components of a Spiritual Direction Session
Slow
A spiritual direction session will follow a slower rhythm than an everyday conversation. There are pauses and times of silence that allow distractions to fall away.
Listening
The use of the word 'direction' can paint a picture of a client being given answers or told what to do. Instead, together we will listen attentively for sparks of life and God as we consider where or how to go from 'here'.
Open
I do not have an agenda for you. Spiritual direction is a place for you to get in touch with yourself and the God who is there with you. What that looks like and how that plays out is as individual as each human being.
Hi, I'm Sharlin.
I'm a certified spiritual director, trained through Fall Creek Abbey, School of Spiritual Direction. It is my pleasure to walk with people through seasons of illness, loss, grief, and disorientation or disillusionment with God, faith, and community. These seasons have changed me, and I have experienced how meaningful it can be to have a companion in the winters of life while seeking to live vibrantly again.
I am available to meet one on one, in person or online, and to serve as resident spiritual director at your retreat event.
