SPIRITUAL FORMATION & PRACTICE (DMSP-6047)

(01/17/2023-01/21/2023)

Course Memo

The ancient practice of spiritual direction is rooted not only in what one learns in a classroom but in on-going commitment to spiritual practice and formation. This class will provide opportunities to encounter several classical and contemporary models of spiritual practice while also engaging in different forms of meditation, art, chant, and body prayers. By deepening our personal practice we will learn to "guard the heart," inspire the spirit, welcome diversity, and remain more vibrantly present to others. Prior admission to SFTS DMin program is required. Course meets daily, 1/17/23 - 1/21/23, from 9am-5pm at SFTS.
