spiritual
direction

with Rev. Dr. Angela R. Hooks,
MFA, Ph.D., MDiv.

What is
Spiritual Direction?

A spiritual direction session is a scheduled hour to notice God moving in and around you in the right now moments. A spiritual direction session is a time to seek, listen, grapple, and rest in the Lord.

Together, guided by the Holy Spirit, we notice the rhythms and movement of healing, joy, and grace in your life.  Spiritual direction helps you connect your heartbeat to the heartbeat of God. It’s holy listening.

Who benefits from
Spiritual Direction?

The ordinary, the skeptic, the seeker, the creative, the lifelong Christian and the new Christian, those in vocational ministry, actively walking away from the church, and those rediscovering their childhood faith, and you, who want to experience a deeper intimacy with God.

For me, wholeness means finding your rhythms of life that balance the sacred and the ordinary through the practice of spiritual formation.

I am committed to holding space for you with compassion and confidentiality, a listening ear, a prayerful heart, and respect for your personhood.

We can talk on Zoom, with a phone session, or in person if you’re in Manchester, Connecticut, or I’m in your corner of the world.

  • Desiring a deeper journey toward intimacy with the Divine

  • Discerning the next steps in my calling or vocation

  • Flourishing, and it feels good and weird

  • Getting through the rough spots

  • Learning to guard my heart

  • Relating to God seems rote, routine, and unfulfilling

Let’s get to know each other and see if we are a good fit. Ask questions and experience a short spiritual direction session.

If we discern that we are a good fit, I look forward to being with you as we listen, seek, grapple, and rest in the Lord together.
