About Me

David is a certified Spiritual Director, called to help people know and experience the love of the Father and discern his presence in their lives. We often hide ourselves from ourselves and from God. Uncovering who we are in Christ, who we are created to be, is freeing and empowering and opens the way to the Father's heart. David has taken that journey and is honored to be able to help others find their way.

David is a graduate of Sustainable Faith's School of Direction, and an Elder at Wonderful Mercy Church where he is part of the preaching rotation. He is a retired technology development and leadership coach. He writes on spiritual formation at www.frompopsworkshop.com.

David offers direction in person in Chandler, Arizona and remotely via video conference. You are invited to contact him with any questions you may have about spiritual direction or his background.

About Me

As a spiritual director, I offer a safe sanctuary for those seeking rest for their weary soul. Whether we meet in person or online, my goal is to create a place of hospitality and welcome for you to bring your true authentic self. My practice welcomes ALL who seek to tend to their inner life. I have a great sense of compassion for those who find themselves deconstructing from their beliefs…as I too have been in this wilderness. Together, we will notice God’s presence and activity within your every day lived experience as we sit within the wonder and mystery…noticing God's movement. This work can be challenging at times, but also rewarding and healing. As we form an alliance and gain trust, my hope is that your inner life will open even more to experience God/Creator/The Divine’s great love. I look forward to speaking with you to explore your options and to consider if I am a good fit to walk along side you in your spiritual journey!

About Me

As someone who encountered and benefited from spiritual direction when I especially needed help discerning God's voice, I love offering that same gift to fellow journeyers. Taking a cue from Mary of Bethany, I can't imagine anything more valuable than carving out space to give Jesus our full attention, to hang on His every word, to abide with Him. Sometimes we need to invite a friend to help us intentionally pay attention. I consider it an honor to co-listen. I also enjoy leading both co-ed and women's retreats with a contemplative rest focus.

I received spiritual direction training through Selah-Anglican (Leadership Transformations Institute) and am pursuing a Master of Arts in Theological Studies/ Spiritual Formation through Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

I love asking the tough questions, believing that God isn't intimidated by them!

About Me

I have lived in & around Atlanta almost my whole life. I am married to my cherished wife Wendy, and we have a precious teenage daughter. My hobbies include reading & watching movies, but my real joy is found in just spending time with my family.

I was a bi-vocational pastor for 25 years. I was ordained in the Christian Church, but served in pastoral positions in Christian, United Methodist, Baptist, and non-denominational churches. My secular job is as an electrical engineering manager, and I also teach Spiritual Direction at North Park Seminary in Chicago. I offer spiritual direction & supervision to both sisters and brothers in Christ and anyone else who desires to grow closer to God.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Georgia Tech, a Master's degree in Theological Studies from Emory University, & a Doctor of Ministry in Spiritual Formation degree from Ashland Theological Seminary, in addition to being a graduate of the Renovaré Institute for Christian Spiritual Formation. I received my training as a spiritual director and supervisor at North Park Theological Seminary.

Beginning in 2014, I had the privilege of jointly creating, then co-directing with Dr. Sharon Rowland, the Graduate Certificate Program in Spiritual Direction at Richmont Graduate University in Atlanta. In addition to offering spiritual direction, I currently teach spiritual direction at North Park Theological Seminary. I am the author of "The Way We See: Kingdom Paradigms and Christian Formation," which teaches a unique, biblically-based spiritual practice termed Kingdom Paradigms that aids not only in deepening one’s intimacy with God but also invites Christ-followers to actually live in the present goodness of God’s Kingdom more fully and consistently. I also created a personal assessment tool for spiritual formation.

It is my call and my joy to be a “friend of the Bridegroom.” It is my privilege to walk alongside others and assist them as they discern God’s voice and go ever deeper in their intimacy with God through Jesus Christ.

About Me

I have a passion to journey with leaders who long to be who God has made them to be and to do what God has created them to do. That passion flows from my own experience as a leader and from over 25 years of experience working with leaders in Africa.

In direction, I offer myself as a non-anxious presence who helps leaders pay attention to the presence, the work and the word of Christ in their life. As we journey, I offer a safe space where they can explore God’s invitations and grow in awareness. As a fellow journeyer, I help leaders find grace and courage through Jesus, to respond well.

I currently serve as the Director of Community Life and Formation at East Mountain Capetown, South Africa. I hold a BS in Industrial Engineering, an M.Div in Christian Education, an M.A. in Spiritual Formation and a certificate in Spiritual Direction.

About Me

Becoming a spiritual director seemed to be the natural next step for me in my own spiritual journey, but also the next step in serving others. I had been in some form of educational vocation and leadership for years in elementary school, middle school, homeschool, women’s Bible studies, and small group studies. During those years I took training in lay counseling and mentored both students and adults. I was not in a denomination that emphasized spiritual direction, but after studying the early church fathers, desert spirituality, and some of the Christian Mystics I became curious.

In 2010 I took myself on a silent retreat. While planning for that retreat I felt the need for direction, wisdom from someone who had walked this path before. I was hard pressed to find someone who had any experience with a silent retreat. The Lord truly met me during that four day retreat. Part of the way He met me was through the couple who directed the little retreat center I found in central Indiana. I did not know it at the time, but they acted as spiritual directors for me. They listened intently to me, asked questions, listened to God on my behalf, and spoke love and compassion. It was a truly amazing experience and not like anything I had ever experienced before.

That retreat was the beginning of my journey toward discerning my calling and becoming a spiritual director. The experiences of the nearness of presence of God, someone else to listen to God with me and for me, and words of love and understanding touched me deeply. I wanted to help others find this place of deep connection with God and exploration of their place in God as the beloved.

In 2016 I was accepted into the Spiritual Direction Internship at Benedict Inn and Retreat Center in Beech Grove, Indiana. I graduated in 2018 and have been practicing spiritual direction out of my home since then.

I qualified as a SoulCollage® Facilitator in 2019 out of a desire to bring the creative arts into my practice. I have continued my education as a spiritual director through retreats and seminars at Benedict Inn and through Spiritual Directors International. I have designed and directed retreats on Thomas Merton, SoulCollage®, as well as for not for profit groups. I do group spiritual direction through a narrative group and lead a group in contemplative living centered on the writings of Thomas Merton. In April 2022 I completed 30 hours of training on companioning the bereaved taught by Dr. Alan D. Wolfelt PH. D., founder of the Center for Loss and Life Transition.

About Me

I consider it a high calling and an honor to journey with people on a one-on-one basis as well as in group spiritual direction. I have also done directed retreats and soul care events and retreats and have a particular heart for ministry leaders and their soul care. I love to share life stories and spiritual pilgrimages with others, helping them see God within their personal journey. My husband and I moved from Houston to San Antonio to help start a plant church where I am on staff in a Soul Care position and Elder.

I have a particular heart for church leaders, pastors, spouses of pastors, the rawness and honesty of the recovery community, and have experience in the unusual area of pet loss and bereavement. I owned a dog obedience school and have trained/shown for many years. Unfortunately, I have a history of a lot of loss and grief within that realm. God seems to place me in the lives of others as they walk through pet related hard decisions, emotions, grief, etc. regarding an area of life that we often somehow think should be minimized.

I enjoy long hikes, long, deep talks, playing in the dirt, good cups of coffee, dogs my wonderful husband and my grandchildren.

About Me

Institute for Ministerial Wholeness (www.imwholeness.org)
Founder and Director

Mark founded the non-profit Institute for Ministerial Wholeness (IMW). IMW serves those serving in ministry, missions, and the marketplace through spiritual direction, webinars, seminars, retreats, teaching, and preaching on Holistic Formation.

Dr. Mark Hausfeld has more than thirty years of pastoral and missionary experience in the United States and abroad and is passionate about evangelism, discipleship, and church planting. His focus has centered on urban settings in North America and restricted contexts in far-reaching global Muslim urban contexts. Mark's primary focus today is twofold. He is a certified Spiritual Director through the Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University. His unique foci are spiritual direction relationships with pastors, missionaries, and educators. Mark's other passion is empowering the church locally and globally to be informed, trained, and equipped to engage and reach unreached peoples who have come to the West as immigrants, migrants, and refugees that God has brought from the ends of the earth to our Jerusalems. His mantra is, "Missions is not where, but whom."

Mark became president of the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary at Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri, on July 1, 2015, where he served for two years. He recommended to the Seminary Board of Advisors and the Evangel University Board of Trustees that his position as President be eliminated and that the seminary may be led by the Dean of the Seminary since the consolidation of Evangel University, Central Bible College, and the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) was complete. The Board of Trustees agreed with the recommendation.

During the 2007-2008 academic year, he was the second J. Philip Hogan Chair of World Missions at AGTS. His three Hogan lectures and monograph focused on Islam in America: Reaching Diaspora Muslims through the Local Church. He is an Urban and Islamic Studies professor and teaches at universities, seminaries, and graduate schools in the United States and globally. He started and directed the seminary's Center for Islamic Studies in 2008. He continues to serve as a professor of Urban and Islamic Studies for AGTS.

Dr. Hausfeld served as the international director of Global Initiative: Reaching Muslim Peoples (2009-2015). As director, Mark collaborated with national churches worldwide, AGWM regions, and local churches in the United States to equip and mobilize them to reach Muslims everywhere.

From 2000 to 2008, Mark served as the Area Director for Central Eurasia. In this role, he provided pastoral care, strategic consultation, and administration for missionaries and national leaders in the region's 10 Muslim-majority countries at the heart of the "10/40 Window," the least reached area of the world.

Mark and his wife, Lynda, served as AGWM missionaries in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan from 1995-2001. During that time, they started Teen Challenge Pakistan and assisted in two indigenous church plants. Before becoming an AGWM missionary, Mark pioneered and pastored an inner city, multi-cultural church on the southwest side of the City of Chicago for ten years.

Dr. Hausfeld received his Bachelor of Arts from Evangel University, a Master of Divinity from AGTS, and a Doctor of Ministry (Urban Missions) from Northern Theological Seminary.

Mark and Lynda have three children. Both daughters and son are married. The daughters each have two sons, and one has a daughter. All their children and spouses are followers of Jesus Christ, involved in the local church, and professionals in profit, nonprofit, and education marketplace sectors.

About Me

Life has seasons. Sometimes it’s hard to discern what the Lord is up to. It’s in these times that someone joining you, listening to, with and for you, and praying alongside you can be just what a soul needs.

We aren’t meant to journey alone. And as a spiritual director, I want to join with you as we create space to hear from the Lord—whatever your season of life. God’s pursuit of his children is relentless and a co-discerner and spiritual director can help you to not have to go it alone.

I have a MA in Spiritual Formation & Soul Care from Talbot Theological Seminary at Biola University (‘10). I have worked privately, in University and church settings as an individual and group spiritual director. I would love to work with you as we seek the Lord’s invitations in your life together.

About Me

"There is only one problem on which all my existence, my peace, and my happiness depend; to discover myself in discovering God. If I find Him, I will find myself, and if I find my true self I will find Him. ~Thomas Merton

This quote summarizes the core of my calling and ministry. I find it a privilege to journey alongside individuals as they learn and deepen their awareness of themselves and of God. It has been in my own experience of spiritual direction that I've experienced this transformation of life most deeply.

I was trained through the Selah spiritual direction certificate program through Leadership Transformations, Inc. I am also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have extensive experience in both mental health practice (having been practicing since 2009 and supervising other counselors since 2010) and in spiritual direction practice (having been offering spiritual direction since 2009). Due to my mental health practice experience, I specialize in providing spiritual direction to women who are recovering from traumatic events.

About Me

While on staff with Young Life, I had the gift of meeting with a spiritual director, which was especially helpful in a difficult season of ministry in my early 20s. Meeting her led to attending seminary at Fuller's regional campus in Colorado, which is where I met my husband, Bryan. My exposure to and passion for spiritual formation grew in my time at Fuller, with several professors who were also trained in spiritual direction. I felt the nudge and invitation from the Holy Spirit to pursue training in spiritual direction myself, longing to offer the same gifts I had been given to others as they need a safe space to prayerfully articulate the joys, sorrows, questions, doubts, and abundant grace of life in Christ.

After graduating, my husband and I relocated to California, where we both attended the two-year School of Spiritual Direction (SOSD) under Sustainable Faith. I completed Sustainable Faith's SOSD program in 2018, and I recently completed their supervision training as well. I'm the co-director of CURATE Ministries, alongside my husband Bryan, which is a soul care and spiritual formation ministry, dedicated to coming alongside others as they pursue new heights and depths in their spiritual lives.

God has used spiritual direction in such profound, unexpected ways in my own life--I can honestly say it's been a life-changing experience! I find the greatest joy in offering spiritual direction, and I come alive at the chance to walk alongside others in their relationships with God. I consider it holy ground. My heart as a spiritual director is simply to prayerfully listen to you as you share from your own prayer life and journey with Jesus, staying attuned to the Holy Spirit's voice, movements and graces in your life.

I am a mom to two beautiful girls, Evangeline and Lyla. Bryan and I also relocated to Colorado Springs and are enjoying being back in the Rocky Mountains.

Please send me an email if you're interested in spiritual direction, supervision, or if you have any questions. I am able to see people in person in the Colorado Springs area, as well as over Zoom, Facetime, etc. I look forward to connecting with you!

About Me

Curate your Heart. Experience God's fullness. Be Transformed.

My driving passion is to see people grow deeper in Christ. I am captivated by the reality that there is more of Christ and His love than we have experienced.

I grew up in Colorado Springs, enjoying the beautiful Rocky Mountains. After studying finance at the University of Colorado, I helped churches, non-profit organizations and individuals with stewarding their finances.

Shortly after graduating from college, I discerned a call to full-time pastoral work and enrolled at Fuller Theological Seminary. While working on my Masters in Theology, I was introduced to the ministry of spiritual direction, and realized I had been serving as a spiritual director to others long before I formally knew what spiritual direction was. A few of my seminary professors were also trained in the ministry of spiritual direction, which offered a unique integration between theology and what it means to follow Christ in the day-to-day.

Upon graduating, my wife I moved to Auburn, CA to serve as the community life pastor in a local church. Shortly after moving to Auburn, I attended Sustainable Faith and completed my training in 2018. In addition to serving at the church, I enjoy offering spiritual direction, leading retreats and spiritual formation groups. I recently transitioned off of staff and am pursuing ordination in the Anglican Church and moved back to Colorado and I am pursuing my D.Min in Spiritual Formation at Denver Seminary. I meet with directees in person in Colorado Springs and online anywhere in the world.

I have a heart for pastors, missionaries, ministry leaders and anybody who heart a desire to grow deeper in Christ.

In 2020 I completed my training to become a supervisor. I greatly enjoy the privilege of walking alongside peers in this ministry, where we get the opportunity to attend to our own souls for the sake of those we care for and to grow in our skills to do so. If you are interested in spiritual direction, supervision, retreats or just want to connect, please reach out!

About Me

"This is what my soul has been longing for." Those were my thoughts after attending my first spiritual formation retreat in 2009. I've pressed in deeply on the spiritual formation journey ever since. Having 30 years of experience in different church/ministry leadership capacities,
I welcome others into a sacred space to journey deeper into an intimate relationship with our Triune God. Offering soul hospitality as a trained Spiritual Director, is a humbling honor to prayerfully listen to one’s deepest concerns, longings, and desires for spiritual growth.
Since 2016, I have been actively involved in JourneyMates, a Christian soul care and spiritual formation ministry, serving as a small group facilitator in group spiritual direction. My passion for the Living Word of God and unwavering love for our Triune God fuels my steadfast desire to encourage others to live in the fullness of God’s Beloved as sons and daughters of the King. I offer one on one spiritual direction in office & on Zoom. I am also available for small group direction and guest retreat speaker in leading spiritual formation practices.

About Me

I love to see God reveal Himself to others, and it is a joy for me to encourage a life-giving connection to Him. Life is busy, hurried, and noisy at times. Through spiritual direction I love to offer a quiet and unhurried space to give thoughtful consideration to one’s life with God.

God longs to be gracious and compassionate to us. He has expressed His perfect love through Jesus Christ, and desires that we experience this love and be made whole and holy by it. Because of my own experiences of His life-changing grace, my passion is to see people of all ages experience Him intimately. As a spiritual director, it is my privilege to come alongside others to help them notice and be responsive to God's loving presence in all of life. Through reflecting on our life story, asking questions, and prayerful listening, we see evidence of God's grace. We notice together ways God is at work within and around us, and discern His direction and calling.

God desires to transform us more and more into the likeness of Christ. As a spiritual director, I support you as you open yourself to that deepening work, anchoring you in Biblical truth, so you can live into your full potential in Christ and then live that out in the world. Spiritual practices are offered that help you draw closer to God in ways that are meaningful for you.

I received my training in spiritual direction through Sustainable Faith, and have been practicing spiritual direction since 2012. I have also participated in a two-year spiritual formation program through the Transforming Center. In addition, I have been trained to use the Enneagram, a tool for spiritual transformation, facilitating groups and helping individuals to better understand their profiles.

I have been married for 31 years to a remarkable man, David. We have enjoyed the privilege of serving together in church ministry for nearly three decades. We have six wonderful adult children, all of whom I refer to as my greatest earthly treasures!

About Me

Trained at Sustainable Faith's School of Spiritual Direction in Cincinnati, Ohio, I've been offering spiritual direction to both groups and individuals since 2010. I am now an instructor for the school, training Cohorts in Portland, Seattle, Detroit, Nashville, and Cincinnati. I also served as a Vineyard pastor for nearly fourteen years.

Born in Hawaii, I grew up in a military family, so I lived in several different states. Five different Elementary Schools, two Middle Schools and three High Schools taught me the value of adaptability (among other things). I eventually followed my sweetheart, Tracey, from Oregon to Southern California where we were married in 1975. Together we raised three children, two of whom have increased the Henry tribe by marrying amazing spouses.

Originally ordained with Calvary Chapel after completing their bible college, I served as a worship leader at Calvary Chapel Valle Vista, and then worship Pastor at North Coast Calvary Chapel. On the winding path from California to Ohio I traversed multi-collar worlds: climbing up telephone poles, down into manholes, designing internet architecture for the phone company, and eventually pausing midlife to complete my Bachelor of Science Degree in Management Information Systems. (What a long, strange trip it's been ;)

In 2008 I was invited by Lyman Coleman to prototype a groundbreaking and transformative men’s retreat and group experience for the Vineyard, thus ruining me for traditional small groups and small talk forever. My love for "men's work" continues unabated, meshing wonderfully with the practice of spiritual direction.

I currently meet clients both online (via Facetime, Zoom, etc), and in person. I'm generally available during business hours on weekdays, with some exceptions. For more information please visit my website www.pilgrimheart.io (NOT dot.com) or e-mail me at dan@pilgrimheart.io. Our first consultation is free.
