Forum On Spiritual Direction Intro w/ Cami Mann Pt 1a - NO. 77

The Invitation

Spiritual Direction Can Solve (almost) All of the World's Problems. Can it? This is the first part of two episodes introducing our new series, the Invitation "Forum on Spiritual Direction' where Cami Mann and Josh Banner invite you into a long conversation to consider the vital, healing need of contemplative listening especially today. In this forum Josh and Cami attempt to talk about spiritual direction through a practice of spiritual direction. That is to say, these are vulnerable, self-disclosive contemplative listening conversations where Josh and Cami attempt to respond to the movements of the Holy Spirit in each other. They share their enthusiasm and insight, yet they also share their struggles, doubts, and fears. You are invited to engage at least two zoom conversations and to even attend an in-person retreat. Details on these events along with a working outline of the Forum can be found here: https://theinvitationcenter.org/new-page This part of the conversation is an honest, confessional exploration into the nature of what has become the Invitation Center in and through Josh, the founder and lead of the Invitation. In part two of this introduction, the focus turns to Cami's trauma-informed practice of direction and the story of how she came to her practice. Josh and Cami serve as the co-directors of the Invitation School of Contemplative Listening, a study and practice of spiritual direction at the vital intersection of contemplation and justice. https://theinvitationcenter.org/socl To subscribe to the Invitation newsletter: https://theinvitationcenter.org/subscribe To learn about the Invitation School of Prayer: https://theinvitationcenter.org/school-of-prayer
