Most of us don't wake up one morning and decide our spiritual life needs attention. Something quieter happens first—a restlessness we can't quite name, a growing weariness with practices that once felt alive but now feel like obligation, a low-grade sense that something is maintained rather than truly tended. Deeper Tending is for those who have felt that stirring—and who are ready to do something more than reach for more of what they already have.
For those who would like to continue the work of deeper tending in a more structured way, Tom has created a four-week retreat, based on the themes of his book. The retreat is designed to be lived within your daily rhythms rather than apart from them, offering weekly invitations, reflections, and practices for tenderly heeding the voices of relationships, revelations, and rendings as they arise in your own life. It can be done individually or as a group.
This book offers Ignatius' insights into how mutuality and intimacy can be experienced and developed, and it provides striking examples and practical steps for developing that relationship and our personal prayer time. The chapters outline a process of redefining personal prayer in relational terms, thereby deepening one's relationship with God and with others. Anyone interested in Ignatian spirituality and growing closer to God will find this book a rich source of blessings.
Tom offers a 6-week group guide to "The Intimacy You Desire" for those who want to use it in their book study group or faith formation group. It includes recommendations for the facilitator, a guide for how to structure the weekly sharing, information on journaling, and a feeling word list.
