Mapping your spiritual journey is a technique used in spiritual direction, on retreats and pastoral work, as a way of recognising and interpreting God’s presence in the highs and lows of your life experiences. This book offers creative ways to explore your own spiritual journey, helping you to trace your relationship with God from the beginning, whether looking at your entire life or exploring significant moments. It can be done in multiple creative ways – drawing, collages, timelines, maps, collections of objects or photographs, modelling, journaling, making a garden and more. It offers suggestions for ways to reflect on your journey by looking at parallels in the narratives of the Bible and in everyday life and to learn from these how to deepen your understanding of God’s presence and actions in your life. This equips you to look forward and plan your future journey with God with confidence.

'This is an exciting resource for those seeking to deepen their spirituality and will be particularly helpful for leaders of retreats, quiet days and those who offer spiritual accompaniment.' -- April McIntyre, Transforming Ministry
