I'm very pleased to bring you another interview with my good friend Bethany Alvey, who is a spiritual director. I spent the last year or so going through a program with her as she was developing her spiritual direction practice. I found it very helpful and also very informative. Until that process, I knew very little about spiritual direction, but it's something I hear about quite a bit now, especially as I spend most of my time outside evangelical and institutional church circles. So I thought that it maybe it would be useful to you, if you aren't already familiar with it, to understand what it's all about and what you might expect if you had a spiritual director.
