1. Author Day with
Nancy Bieber
Nancy L. Bieber is a teacher, psychologist and spiritual
director with thirty years of experience in working with
individuals and groups in transition and change. A core
leader with Oasis, she leads spiritual formation retreats
and workshops around the country.
Nancy will be sharing in an afternoon retreat from her new book, Decision-
Making & Spiritual Discernment: The Sacred Art of Finding Your Way
(available in Fall 2010 through Skylight Paths Publishing).
A description from the publisher includes:
When it comes time to make important decisions in our lives, it is very
human to want to feel that the decisions we are making are good. When
we approach decision-making as a spiritual practice, we are recognizing
that we need the aid of the wise and loving Spirit whose Light exceeds
our own.
This is the practice of spiritual discernment, the traditional religious
name for listening and attending to God’s guidance. While traditional
religious language speaks of finding “God’s will,” the approach in this
book is that we are active participants, co-creators with the Divine in
shaping our lives.
Nancy presents three essential aspects of Spirit-led decision-making:
Willingness—being open to God’s wisdom and love
Attentiveness—noticing what is true, discerning the path right for us
Responsiveness—taking steps forward as the way becomes clear
With gentle encouragement, Bieber shows us how to weave these themes together so that
they strengthen our decision-making process and help us find our path.
