I’m Rachel Norris. If we met in person to get a sense of each other, here’s what I hope you’d glean about me:
- I live in Franklin, Tennessee.
- I am a quiet soul, a gentle guide; a mother, a sister, a creative.
- I am a contemplative also familiar with evangelical, charismatic, and deconstruction spaces.
- I believe in vulnerability, and letting go, and friendship, and making beautiful, and the healing power of poetry.
- While I completed my certification in 2020, I’ve been sitting with people doing various aspects of this work for twenty years.
- In the world I see a lot of broken people just trying to do the best they can. It’s as messy as it is worth living in.
- In God I see a firm foundation of lovingkindness who is For us and In us and completely secure in HImself.
- In creation I find a stunningly clear expression of the Creator that floors me with awe and gratitude.
- In Spiritual Direction I revel in wide open spaces, questions that give permission, and even questions without answers. It’s an invitation to many expressions amongst God and a person’s body, soul, spirit; a way of walking with myself, God and others that feels like home.
