The LATimes reports on a 1900 year old Catholic practice that is finding its way into protestant, Jewish, and Buddhist faiths. "[S]piritual directors [...] offer the one-on-one companionship of an unbiased friend. Some spiritual directors are ordained pastors, priests or nuns. Others are lay people. [...] Spiritual direction is different from pastoral counseling or therapy. Spiritual directors don't give advice, diagnose a condition or try to help fix a problem." Seems like an interesting approach in helping people make up their own minds through faith.
