Watch Father Richard Rohr explain why more people are asking for-and benefiting from-spiritual direction.
The spiritual journey is often a lonely path, especially in difficult or trying times. A sacred companion, like a spiritual director or friend, can guide and reflect back to us God’s presence in our life and the world-awakening new possibilities, connections, and deeper meaning. As Father Richard says, “The job of the spiritual director is to hold on to spirit. We don’t recognize our immense need for control. Spirit can’t let you get away with that. We have to find a different meaning and expand the limits of our perspectives.”
Spiritual Directors International (SDI) is a global learning community that advocates for the service of spiritual companionship or spiritual direction. Since the Center for Action and Contemplation (CAC) does not offer spiritual direction, we are grateful for partnerships with organizations like Spiritual Director’s International (SDI). SDI helps connect members of our community to a spiritual director in their area. The organization also provides resources and training for those interested in learning more about the contemplative practice of spiritual companionship.
SDI's Annual Conference will be hybrid in 2022. May 11-15. Learn more here: www.sdicompanions.org/sdi-eve...
