  • Together in Prayer: the Art and Gift of Group Spiritual Direction
    Together in Prayer: The Art and Gift of Group Spiritual Direction By Susan S. Phillips Susan S. Phillips (PhD), sociologist, spiritual director, and executive director of New College Berkeley, an affiliate of the Graduate Theological Union, is one of the keynote speakers at the 2020 Conference of the Association of Doctor of Ministry Education. Abstract: For nearly ten years—one-fourth of our institutional life—New College Berkeley has devoted itself to fostering spiritual formation and soul care among adult Christians, clergy and lay, through spiritual direction groups placed throughout the Greater Bay Area and, for the past three years, also facilitating spiritual direction groups for undergraduate and graduate students. Our constituency of primarily Protestant, Gospel-committed, church-going, biblically literate Christians expressed increasing hunger for spiritual nourishment, and the spiritual direction groups have been a core component of our response to them. This article describes this ministry as experienced by the directees, the directors, and by the author who has supervised the directors and overseen the program. This spiritual discipline is recommended for students in all levels of theological education, including those in MDiv, DMin, and PhD programs. As each academic year ends at New College Berkeley, participants in our nine-month spiritual direction groups write to us about the experience. One wrote: This was my first experience with anything that was so introspective. I was searching for a place where I could step back and re-learn how to be open to God. I was so tired of going through the motions. I yearned to be still and see how God could be known to me in new ways….
