Soul Circle: Will of God as a Way of Life.
Every quarter, Katie Pearson, Living Soul Spiritual Formation Director, leads a group coaching experience based on one of her favorite books. This fall's cohort will dive into The Will of God as a Way of Life by Jerry Sittser, a professor and theologian who has recently been featured alongside John Mark Comer in Practicing the Way. Rich in wisdom and practical application, Sittser challenges the common belief that God has one hidden, detailed plan for every decision we make and that our primary task is to discover it. Instead, he argues that God's will is less about finding a specific path and more about becoming the kind of person who walks faithfully with Him in every circumstance. In addition to the discussion, Katie has created a simple Life Mapping exercise to support recalling spiritual markers of the past and to re-story a hopeful future of living a "with-God" life.
Limited to 8 women.
6 - sessions
Starts October 8th. 5:30 pm MDT (4:30 PDT/6:30 CDT/7:30 EDT).
Sessions are 75 minutes.


Soul Balance: Handstands & Spiritual Direction
Join Kali Gillespie, RYT 500 & Spiritual Director, for this incredible soul circle themed on balance, trust, courage, and surrender. Learning to handstand is an invitation for us to move toward discomfort, with both awareness and faith. Kali embarked on the handstand journey at age 50 and has been an inspiration to many of us! Each week you'll focus on strength-building, skill development, and notice how fear might show up for us. We'll practice gently expanding our comfort zones while honoring our nervous systems and capacity, remaining connected to our breath and the presence of God.
Limited to 8.
