The Spirit is speaking. Can you hear him? If you're longing to
become more attentive to God--to listen to him, know his voice and
experience his love, spiritual direction can point the way. In
Seeking God Together, experienced spiritual director Alice Fryling
offers a unique introduction specifically for group spiritual
direction: a place where individuals can experience what it means
to be listened to and loved by others, so that they can learn to
listen more attentively to God in their daily lives and be used by
God. Out of her years of being both director and directee, Fryling
offers practical, step-by-step guidance for those who would like to
start, lead or participate in group spiritual direction. Her book
will help you know what to expect and fully equip you for the
different aspects of the group experience, including learning to
listen to God, using Scripture in a group, navigating different
personalities, setting group expectations and asking life-giving
questions. She also provides an appendix with opening exercises for
use in your meetings together. "The intentional goal of group
spiritual direction," Alice writes, "is to help each participant
become more aware of God in their lives, for the sake of others.
Spiritual direction leads you to an awakening of the soul." The
Spirit is speaking to you and to others. Here is a book to help you
and a group of soul friends listen for and with each other as you
seek God together.
"Who in the world am I?" The Enneagram is like a mirror, reflecting
dimensions of ourselves that are sometimes hard to see. In this
helpful guide, spiritual director and Enneagram teacher Alice
Fryling offers an introduction to each number of the Enneagram and
their respective triads. More than just helping us discern our
number, this book relates the Enneagram to our spiritual journey,
as a way to identify our gifts as well as our blind spots. With
Scripture meditations and questions for reflection and discussion,
Mirror for the Soul offers a new perspective on our unique
temperament so that we might know and extend God's grace more
fully. Knowledge of the Enneagram leads us into more authentic
self-awareness, richer relationships, and deeper places in the soul
where we can worship God in truth and grace.

God's leading
With an emphasis on spiritual direction, "The Art of Spiritual
Listening" includes Bible study questions, prompts for personal
reflection, and notes for leaders who wish to use the book in a
group. If your life is too noisy to hear God, or if you want to
hear his voice more clearly, "The Art of Spiritual Listening" will
guide you to a deeper understanding of what it means to respond to
God's invitation to listen.
Learning to Love Your Children Well
The challenges of parenting can sometimes feel overwhelming. What
do we do when we run out of patience? How do we handle our anger
when it seems to be getting the best of us? Where do we find the
affirmation our children need?
Alice Fryling invites you to discover what the Bible says about how
to reflect the love, wisdom, and grace of God in your parenting.
Scripture gives us stories and truths about parenting and describes
our relationship with God in a way that goes beyond "answers." With
wisdom and authenticity, this guide discusses how God parents us,
how to pray for our kids, how to handle our own fears and failures,
and how to entrust our children to God.
