Spiritual Discernment in Leadership

Ruth Haley Barton, in Pursuing God’s Will Together, suggests that in order for leaders to avoid simply doing what is best according to their own thinking and desires, or merely working in the realm of what is strategically expedient, they must find ways to intentionally seek the will of God.

The ministry of Odyssey in Christ provides seminars and retreats that help leaders to recognize and respond to the presence and the activity of God in the process of decision making, thus opening themselves up to the reality of divine wisdom that goes beyond human wisdom and ingenuity. One-day introductory seminars and two-three day retreat formats provide instruction and practical experience in group discernment and decision making.
