A spiritual
director is a person with whom you talk
about
how your spiritual journey
is progressing.
The term "spiritual
director" is
a traditional one that does not mean
someone who decides a direction
for you. A spiritual director is experienced
in helping you sort
through your ideas and feelings about the spiritual path
of your
own choosing.
In sessions
with a spiritual director, you get to step back, look at your life from a
spiritual perspective, and focus your intention. These talks are often by telephone.

Jon is not affiliated
with any
organization and he serves as a spiritual support for
individuals from many
different
backgrounds.
Spiritual direction sessions are most commonly scheduled once a month.
