Empathy in Spiritual Direction

Empathy is a key ingredient to hearing from the Lord and experiencing his love while engaging in spiritual direction. A Spiritual Director skilled in offering empathy can create a warm and safe space for you to pay attention to God's movement in your life. The ability to slow down, to dedicate intentional and confidential time for you to bring your hopes, learnings, questions, and distress to an ambassador of Christ, makes it possible for you to mine treasures from God.
