[Ep 151] [Written Spiritual Direction Session] Standing Stones: Stories of God's Faithfulness

from Journal Gently: Healing with God through quiet reflection, honest conversations, and gentle journaling · host Kari Bartkus, Spiritual Director for Christian Women

Have you ever wondered what it was like to experience a spiritual direction session? What happens? What do you talk about? While some coaches will air live coaching sessions, I can't very well do that, for two different reasons. One, I don't do live spiritual direction sessions, since I focus on written spiritual direction. And two, spiritual direction is often deeply personal, and many women would hesitate to air that in front of an audience. But I still want to help you get a glimpse of what written spiritual direction can look like. So today, I am going to share with you some letters that a client and I have written to each other.  Cindy has graciously given me permission to share these, and to use her real name, because she has experienced the power of spiritual direction in written form, and she is passionate about helping others experience that, too. I invite you to pay attention to anything that it stirs up in you: any questions, any desires, any beliefs. Write those down in your journal and talk about them with God.  Kari   >> Sign up for Written Spiritual Direction http://lovedoesthat.org/spiritualdirection    RELATED EPISODES + RESOURCES: ·       Episode 33: Written Spiritual Direction: How Letters and Messages Can Create Space for God ·       Episode 66: [Written Spiritual Direction Session] Loneliness ·       Episode 87: [Written Spiritual Direction] When Temptation Comes Your Way ______ >> Free Journaling Workshop: 3 ways to encounter God on the pages of your journal http://lovedoesthat.org/journalingworkshop >> Journal Gently: An 8-week program designed to help you process grief and trauma with God http://lovedoesthat.org/journalgently >> Grab your copy of my Courageous Care book http://lovedoesthat.org/care   Music by DappyTKeys
