Online Enrichment Sessions for Spiritual Directors
Sundays, 1:00-4:00pm EST - Zoom
April 6, 2025: Tricia Way
Listening as a Radical Act of Love, Healing, Justice, and Transformation
This session will offer Spiritual Directors an opportunity to join together in community and reflect deeply on the content, quality, and impact of our listening in the work that we do. Tricia Way, co-author of The Little Book of Listening and facilitator with JUST Listening, will guide us in thinking about what hinders our ability to listen presently and what can strengthen it. We will also contemplate the radical potential of listening from a place of presence with ourselves and another person, opening space for love, healing, justice, and transformation to emerge from the listening encounter. There will be time for personal reflection as well as large and small group discussions during our time together in this enrichment session.
