A Day of Discernment: How to Listen to God’s Voice

This one-day program, designed for congregations, teaches the practice of spiritual discernment by helping each participant develop a clearer sense of God’s path around an issue of current importance in his or her own life. The program builds spiritual community by weaving together silence, song, Scripture, creative meditation activities and sharing in small groups.

Are you experiencing conflict in your congregation? You are not alone: in a national survey,75% of congregations reported some level of conflict in the past five years. Of these, one-quarter had conflict serious enough to have a lasting impact on congregational life. We offer the "Opening the Ear of Your Heart" workshop to help you move beyond discussion and debate to tap into the healing power of God's love through deep prayerful listening and creative engagement with Scripture.
