Spiritual Direction exists in Christianity, Judaism, Sufism, and other traditions, and is especially sympatico with Unitarian Universalists because we live in the questions and multiple ways of knowing and being. UU Spiritual Directors support individuals and small groups in exploring their own unique spiritual path, whatever that maybe, without judgment or pressure to conform to any particular dogma or doctrine. Because Unitarian Universalist Sources draw on the main world religions and individual life experience, we are especially equipped to companion not just other Unitarian Universalists, but also the spiritual-but-not-religious and those from other faith traditions who crave the freshness of no “one right way.”
Theresa Blythe gives five reasons that UU Spiritual Directors are well-made to serve the spiritual-but-not-religious.
