Spiritual discernment for teams

Exploring the Path Ahead Through Shared Discernment

LTi's Spiritual Leadership Communities are unique groups of leaders who desire ever deepening attentiveness to the presence and movement of God within their lives and among one another. Each community gathers together for four topical retreats over a period of nine months, which include times of prayerful community, shared spiritual journeys, and exposure to practical resources and training. Each retreat is designed to provide a spiritually enriching environment for ongoing encouragement and growth, whereby spiritual formation and discernment are significantly enlarged in the hearts of leaders. It is our hope that by coming alongside and engaging with one another in unhurried, reflective/contemplative retreat settings we will develop a lifestyle of spiritual formation that will impact our personal walk of intimacy with Christ and ultimately infiltrate our daily ministry context.

They begin with a good plan in mind but are open to improvising as the need arises.  They give you a sense of confidence in strange, unfamiliar territory. They lead you through dense underbrush and rocky ground.  They bring you over faint trails, barely perceptible. The path goes through seemingly interminable dark, forest cover but eventually out to the bright sky of the river opening where unspeakable beauty and light are found.  Then with all of the skill in one’s possession we cast our lines and strive for the goal of our journey- the possession of the knowledge of God’s love.  And now when this part of the journey is done, we remember it all, every rough and smooth place and the joy of the companionship on the trail, the passion of the quest and our thankfulness to the Great Guide for our success."

"Spiritual discernment asks us to pay attention. We need to attend to both what goes on around us and within us. Ideally, this attentiveness goes on much of the time, a sort of low level, constant spiritual shifting of the data of our experience. But there are times when discernment becomes much more focused, when a crossroad is reached or a choice called for. At times like these the cumulative wisdom of tradition tells us to pay attention on many levels: to consult Scripture, to seek the advice of trusted advisors, to heed the collective sense of the faithful, to read widely and deeply the best ancient and contemporary thinking, to pray, to attend to the prick of conscience and to the yearnings and dreaming of our hearts, to watch, to wait, to listen."
