Spiritual Director
As a spiritual director I resonate with the Benedictine principle of hospitality: “to welcome everyone as I would Christ.” I love to create spaces that are free of shame and open to possibility. My desire is to help you experience God as a real person who is secure, loving, and present; to help you discern God's invitations, corrections, and challenges; and to support you as you take the "leaps of faith" he may ask of you. Spiritual direction means having a hiking buddy on your journey with, and into, God.
I deeply value compassion, forgiveness, truth, and grace, and I deeply believe in God's real and physical interaction with the world through scripture, sacrament, and the church community.
I grew up in Colorado, am a father of five, a historical theology nerd, a ministry leadership veteran, a family trauma survivor, and a recovering anxiety addict. I welcome directees of all kinds and from all walks of life. I am a member of ESDA (Christ-centered Spiritual Directors).

Spiritual Director
In 2017, Christie received a master’s degree from Denver Seminary in Christian Formation and Soul Care. Since then she has spiritually directed missionaries—both on and off the field—as she has also served overseas, and has mentored other girls in the U.S.
Christie is a member of ESDA (Christ-centered Spiritual Directors). In addition to providing spiritual direction, Christie works as the Communication and Media Specialist for Youth For Christ in the Denver area.
As Christie had a traumatic brain injury in 2007 and has had to live with the aftereffects (therapy, seizures, surgeries, etc.), she has a heart to support those who are suffering—and not just physically, but in all areas of life.
Christie prays that she might have the same mindset as Paul in Romans 5:3-5: “We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.”

An ordained pastor and certified spiritual director, Craig now walks alongside individuals, leaders, churches, and organizations as a consultant and business professional.

Spiritual Director
Jane is a spiritual director who loves to listen and create space for people to be seen and heard; to sit with others in sadness or celebration; to witness God’s gentleness and compassion take someone by surprise! She considers it a privilege to share in someone’s journey as they experience healing and the return of joy, or to see someone’s calling clarified. Spiritual Direction helps create the rhythm and focus needed for a ‘pilgrim posture’ of slowing, expecting, noticing, and welcoming God in the midst of real-life busyness.
Her own experience of receiving spiritual direction has been life changing. She spent most of her career in academic medicine as a pediatrician serving and training medical students and residents in low-income neighborhoods and generational poverty. Receiving spiritual direction helped her realize that she was carrying chronic grief. Being able to process the grief, created the space she needed to reclaim the freedom and joy she experiences in living out her faith.
Jane is a life-long learner. She has an M.Div. from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, D. Min. from Gordon-Conwell, and her Spiritual Direction Certification is from the Fall Creek Abbey in Indianapolis. She currently lives in Arvada, Colorado, soaking up the sunshine and beauty of the mountains.

Spiritual Director
Janine appreciates the depth and individualization each person brings to this world. She is interested in walking with you, as your own individual, seeking the Trinity as our guide as we explore your relationship with Jesus. Janine is passionate about life and experiencing God through different lenses. She also loves sipping her morning cup ‘o joe, noticing every shade of orange in every single thing, and making a piece of art from scraps, paint, or cut-outs so she can have a symbolic piece to hold. The slow expansive heart is what Janine offers to you. As we sit together, listening for the holy spirit’s invitations, to consider the paradoxes and contradictions of our lives (the both/and of life), we welcome transformation and a growing awareness of God.
After over 30 years in education with a focus on behavior management and social/emotional development plus living in Mozambique, Africa, Janine has found the heart of people to be calling and aching for care and love just like her own heart. This awareness brought her to take a deep look at the second half of her life and what God was calling her to do. She had to face her own pride and how it got in the way of ministry when she was single on the mission field. Taking this deep look and listening to her internal stirrings, led her to the Soul Care Institute. Janine was committed to doing the work for her own spiritual transformation and learning the tools to provide soul care for others. She then completed training as a spiritual director at Denver Seminary. Janine’s deepest desire is for you to know that you are seen, chosen, and the beloved. She welcomes you on this journey with her. Peace be with you today.

Our calling.
Christ’s love compels us to care for those who care for others, cooperate with the Holy Spirit in the restoration and transformation of souls, companion those in need of a soul friend, communicate the peace of Christ to those who are weary and anxious, and commit to the fulfillment of God’s will on earth as it is done in heaven.
We desire to be
people of prayer and action
who listen others back
into the light of God’s love.
“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” (Ephesians 3:16-19 NIV)

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (NIV)

One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?” “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” (NIV)
-
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.” (NIV)
-
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is— his good, pleasing and perfect will.” (NIV)
-
“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” (NIV)
-
“My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you…” (NIV)
-
“In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death — even death on a cross!” (NIV)
-
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.” (NIV)
Soul Care for Everyone.
