Our Story
We have spent most of our adult lives walking together—learning, teaching, listening, and being formed alongside others. For nearly four decades, we have shared leadership as co-founding pastors of Crossroads Church and Ministries. Along the way, our call has taken many shapes: church planting, spiritual direction, justice work, teaching, writing, and forming leaders who long to live faithfully and fully in the world. What has remained constant is this conviction:

All sustainable action must emerge from a life rooted in harmony—with God, with ourselves, and with one another.
We are followers and friends of God, shaped by a Trinitarian vision of life—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—where love is not an idea but a lived reality. Over time, experience taught us what theory alone never could: that transformation is not driven by striving harder, but by learning to pay attention. To listen deeply. To notice where God is already present and moving within us.
Our own journeys have included seasons of formation, deformation, re-formation, and ongoing transformation. We have known joy and loss, clarity and disruption, certainty and holy unknowing. These experiences led us into contemplative practice, spiritual direction, and trauma-informed formation—not as an escape from the world, but as a way to remain faithfully engaged within it.
From this soil, Crossroads Soul Resources was born.
Crossroads Soul Resources is a spiritually grounded leadership and formation organization devoted to whole-person growth—serving spiritual leaders and seekers who long for inner healing, vocational clarity, and faithful presence. Through immersive retreats, including the Motions of the Soul four-day intensive, a two-year School of Spiritual Direction, and ongoing formation pathways, we create spaces where people integrate head, heart, and body through a Trinitarian framework, trauma-informed guidance, and Enneagram-informed practice.
As Crossroads grows, we will continue to welcome trusted collaborators—teachers, spiritual directors, and practitioners whose wisdom enriches the journey—while holding the heart of the vision steady: leaders who do the inner work, and in doing so become a presence of healing in their homes, churches, workplaces, and communities. Teaching together—at retreats, workshops, and conferences in the U.S. and abroad—continues to be a joy. But the greatest teachers in our lives have been closer to home: our adult children, our grandchildren, and the friendships that have carried us across decades. They keep us grounded, growing young, and faithful to the inner work we invite others into.
This work is our vocation, our practice, and our offering.
We’re grateful you’re here—and honored to walk alongside you for a stretch of the journey.
