from The Weight · host Oxford University United Methodist Church

Show Notes:We don’t often create space for God in our communal decision making process, and we rarely, as a staff, community, group, or church, attempt to discern God’s will for us together. Ruth Haley Barton is working to change that. Ruth Haley is spiritual director, teacher, and retreat leader, and author. She is the founder of the Transforming Center, an organization that creates space for God to strengthen leaders and transform communities. For Ruth Haley, discernment--recognizing the presence of God and listening to God’s voice in our everyday lives--is a habit that we can practice daily as we make small decisions, which will help us make bigger personal decisions, and eventually will guide our corporate decisions. Resources:Learn more about Ruth Haley hereBuy Ruth Haley’s books hereLearn more about the Transforming Center hereListen to Ruth Haley’s podcast, Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership on Apple Podcasts or Spotify
