Cohorts for Spiritual Formation
Home »
These short-term online cohorts are a helpful way to learn new habits and practices.
I have benefited myself from learning within a handful of online cohorts. As part of my spiritual direction practice, I'm excited to offer a similar experience for you to learn practices that will help you grow.
