There must be more…
That thought has haunted me for most of my Christian life. And my own longings have often felt like a sure road to disappointment, not a “divine summons”. With almost three decades of ministry behind me, the journey to “more” has been full of fits and starts.
Nothing has been more helpful than a trusted friend, a guide into the interior of my own soul. Whether that be a book, a podcast or real, live person, sacred companions can help traverse that sometimes-lonely, sometimes-confusing road.
I believe that Spiritual Formation has many components (grace! time!) but significant pillars are: Self-Awareness and God-Awareness…
A healthy journey in Self-Awareness leads to freedom from unhelpful patterns.
And a healthy journey in God-Awareness invites a greater union with the Trinity.
Both require intentionality, gentle patience, and guidance.
“Spiritual Formation helps us reclaim our relationship with God as it was meant to be. It’s not trying—it’s training in eternal living, determined discipleship to Jesus Christ, and the way we discover the renewable source of spiritual energy we’ve been looking for.” (2 Cor 4:16)
