Spiritual Formation

All group training costs are customized

Spiritual Formation is the intentional process of becoming who we were always intended to be: mature lovers of God and others. This process is most healthily practiced in local communities, but books, popular teachers, prayer ministries and other resources can help supplement the work of the local church.

​

Spiritual formation is paying attention to the ways in which God is forming us, and prayerfully responding with practices that open us to more of the love of God and care for creation and others.

Soul Care/Self Care

Group Training

Journey with Bethany in person, with your small or large group for 2-4 hours and explore what it can look like to become the gardener of your own soul. This seminar with interactive experiences explores the importance of attuning ourselves to our own souls.

 

You will learn how to lean in and care for yourself in a sustainable ways. Let's cultivate vitality and joy that will source ever other part of your life, including your body and relationships.

 

Does your soul feel like a effervescent fountain of life, something you rarely consider or dismiss, a dried up puddle, or perhaps an overwhelmed and wilting garden? We will explore God’s point of view on soul care, how to honor your needs & desires and attentively steward your own soul. 

Leading by Listening

Group training

Years of developing leaders have helped me see we need a revolution in how we lead. Our leadership models are often based on giving advice and having the most experience or knowledge, rather than caring for those we lead well.

 

My training and book helps leaders learn how to listen deeply and ask open and powerful questions. Listening with compassion and empathy builds trust, and asking open questions broadens conversations, helps clarify vision and goals, and lets leaders off the hook for having to have the answer for every question.

 

My first tier training can help you and your team learn how to lead well by learning how to ask open questions in a natural way. My second tier training helps leaders learn how to face their ego, learn practices for spiritual and emotional growth, and embrace wonder as a primary response to God and others.  

Theology of Suffering

Group training

The life and words of Jesus teach us that we should expect suffering. How do we preserve and deepen connection with God in the midst of tragedy, crisis, loss, trauma, failure, grief, disappointment, betrayal and pain? Let’s explore together the topic of suffering in our life with God and let’s learn how to grow in unity with Him in the midst of life’s heartaches.
