Grace Owens invites us to step into a scene from Mark 6 and explore how Jesus invites us to stop, rest and retreat. How are you being invited to retreat in this season?

Grace Owen reflects on the concept of "spiritual direction sideways," a term introduced by Julie Dunstan, which has deeply influenced Grace's own journey. Spiritual direction sideways invites us to look beyond traditional settings and methods, integrating creative practices and unexpected encounters in everyday spaces to help others discern God’s presence in their lives.
