Josh sits down with Dr. Beth, spiritual director and teacher at Kairos University, to explore  spiritual direction. Together they unpack what spiritual direction actually is, how it differs from therapy and pastoral care, and why creating sacred space for God to speak is more powerful than any advice or answer a director could give. Whether you're curious about finding a spiritual director or considering becoming one yourself, this conversation will leave you with a deeper understanding of what it means to slow down, release control, and trust the Spirit.
