Have you ever felt like you’re just going through the motions in your faith, passing along truths that no longer feel alive in you? It’s a common experience, especially in ministry, where the demands to produce can leave us feeling dry and disconnected. The idea of being a conduit for God’s love is beautiful, but conduits often remain unchanged by what flows through them.

What if there’s a deeper invitation? Instead of just being a conduit, what if we became chefs—people who savor the goodness of God and create from the richness of our own experiences with Him? It’s a subtle but powerful shift that can transform the way we minister and live.

If this resonates with you, and you’re longing to rediscover the joy of abiding in God, spiritual direction might be a gift to help you find your way back to the table.
