Ben Shoup - M.Div., D.Min. - Spiritual Direction

     Surviving life is already a challenge. Making something meaningful and rich with it is an act of heroism—one we all need to undertake. It is a universal problem with a reward tailored to each person.

     Most people are never taught how to reach into their daily experiences and find spiritual wisdom and guidance, much less how to take these transcendent encounters and integrate them into a new way of living. That predicament leaves you feeling as if you’re failing at life and deeply dissatisfied with yourself and the world around you.

     I have been there, too, and I needed a guide. Working with someone who has done it before and can guide you on your journey is a pathway to a whole new paradigm for what a successful life is and provides a deep sense of meaning and joy, even when things get hard.

     I routinely walk that path myself and serve as a guide for many others. I would love to journey with you along your unique path to an abundant life, too.

Individual Direction

Everyone desires a sense of wholeness, freedom, and joy—a conviction that our lives mean something. But there aren't many guides who can help us make decisions that will take us there. In individual spiritual direction, Dr. Shoup will help you deepen your awareness of your unique spiritual process and guide you in discerning how to flow with it—so you can live with purpose, wholeness, freedom, and joy.

Couples Direction

We all long for our most significant relationships to be safe, deep, and life-giving. In couples direction, over the course of 12 sessions, Dr. Shoup will guide you in acquiring the mindset and skills to develop secure, deeply meaningful, spiritual conversations with each other.

Leadership Direction

The average person will spend 90,000 hours on career-oriented pursuits. Is that 90,000 hours really just about a paycheck, or could there be more to it for you? In leadership direction, Dr. Shoup will guide you to the values that drive your sense of purpose. Together, you will uncover how your most significant challenges invite those values out of you and create a tailored plan of action to turn your work into a place where you get paid to bring something you value into the world.
