What is Spiritual Direction?
Simply stated, Spiritual Direction is “help given by one Christian to another which enables that person to pay attention to God’s personal communication to him or her, to respond to this personally communicating God, to grow in intimacy with this God, and to live out the consequences of the relationship.” (William A. Barry and William J. Connolly, The Practice of Spiritual Direction)
"I simply help people sit still long enough to see what is already there." -Theo of Golden
Hello! My name is Danyel Rogers and I have my Masters in Family Ministry from Logsdon Seminary at Hardin-Simmons University and a Certification in Spiritual Direction from Truett Seminary at Baylor University. I spent 10 years serving full time in Asset Based Community Development Ministry and then transitioned to being a mom and serving in lay ministry through my church. I did not become aware of the ministry of Spiritual Direction until my 40's and found that it offered me an opportunity to connect with God in ways I had not previously experienced. As a Spiritual Director, I love holding space for others to connect with God, guided by the Holy Spirit, as they ask hard questions of their faith, share joys and griefs, and seek to understand God's nature and experience God's grace and mercy firsthand in their own lives. Through silence, meditation, and guidance in prayer practices and intentional listening, I offer spiritual companionship for those looking to deepen their relationship with God or those struggling in their faith journey.
