In this course, we will consider the ministry, mystery, and mission of spiritual direction. Students will engage with key dimensions of spiritual direction including the theology of spiritual direction, mission, supervision, management, and professional ethics, to integrate these learnings into a professional spiritual direction covenant that is unique to each student. Exploring these aspects of spiritual direction will equip students to become spiritual directors with the wisdom, poise, and confidence required to serve others in this vital ministry. The course includes a practicum that involves training, offering direction to others, peer supervision, and individual supervision. As we practice, reflect on, and develop in the ministry of spiritual direction, students will be affirmed and inspired to embrace their vocation as spiritual directors.
