The Art of Spiritual Direction - Foundations, Practice, and Applications (Session I of III)

In partnership with the Parliament of the World's Religions, CEIE has created a Canvas resource on Religious Literacy. In this Module we will begin our course by reflecting together about how we understand the nature of "religion."  Is it the rich constellation of beliefs, practices, and cultures by which people make the world meaningful?  If so, then maybe we are inhabiting a world brimming with numerous religious worldviews that are both fascinating and inspiring to millions.
