| Description: |
|
The Eighteenth Century Jesuit spiritual director Jean-Pierre de Caussade wrote, "We must accept any way [the sacred] chooses to communicate with us and respect any way it pleases [God] to unite . . . to others." Or, as our own Dávid Ferenc (Francis Dávid) said, "there have always been many opinions about faith . . . for faith is a gift of God."
As a Spiritual Director I am eager to help individuals discover the forms and flow of their own unique engagement with the depths of life, with the sacred, with God. It excites me to explore the myriad of paths available, and it is an honor to be invited to walk with people as they walk with spirit. I am available for long-distance direction (including via e-mail). As background, I was raised within the Christian traditions, studied Zen Buddhism for over twenty years, and have a passionate interest in Wicca and Shamanism. I am the author of Teacher, Guide, Companion: Rediscovering Jesus in a Secular World and Simply Pray: A Modern Practice to Deepen Your Life , and was included in the anthologies Everyday Spiritual Practice and Christian Voices in Unitarian Universalism (all from Skinner House Books).
