Spiritual direction is intentionally slowing down and making space for God’s loving presence

What is Spiritual Direction?

Spiritual direction is a sacred conversation where I invite you to slow down and become more aware of God's presence in your life. It’s not about fixing problems or finding quick solutions, but about creating space to explore your spiritual journey with honesty and openness. Whether you feel stuck, long for a deeper connection with God, or are navigating questions of faith, spiritual direction offers a safe place to reflect, be heard, and discover the grace already at work in your life. Sessions are typically monthly and can be in person or virtual.

Who will I meet with?

My name is Dave Horne and I am a certified Spiritual Director through Sustainable Faith, an ordained minister, and I hold a Masters of Divinity. As a spiritual director, I serve as a compassionate companion, helping you discern God’s invitations, make sense of your experiences, and grow in a more authentic relationship with Him. My life experience has made me be someone who is comfortable connecting with persons from other faith traditions or who may be in a season of doubt.

Do you long for more?

I imagine you are on a spiritual journey and want to discover a deeper faith and closeness to God. You long to experience God’s presence in a new and refreshing way. The difficulty is that most of us struggle to do this on our own. Life is busy and there’s little space for quiet reflection or deep relationships. Some of us may even feel like God is disappointed in us or that we are doing it wrong. Discouragement, frustration and loneliness makes it feel like there is a chasm between you and God.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

You were created to be known and loved

I know how it feels to confront deep pain and disappointment in life. And I’ve experienced God’s sustaining presence in new ways because of it. I want the same thing for you. That’s why I believe in spiritual direction.
