The focus is the relationship itself between God and the person. The directee is helped, not to understand this relationship better, but to participate in it through dialogue with God. Spiritual Direction focuses on what happens when a person listens and responds to God. Spiritual Direction at the Renewing Life Center is coordinated through the Spiritual Formation Institute. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spiritualformationinstitute.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contact us<\/a> for more information or to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\t\n\t<h4>\n\t\t\t\tContact Us\n\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t<p>The decision to come to therapy is very courageous and it is an honor to walk alongside people as they work hard to live-out an immensely better and more fulfilling life.
