Questions such as why and where should I pray, how and what do I pray, are creatively explored. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt first glance due to the size of the booklet my thought was every member of a family would need one, which at GBP2.50 per copy, could mean it less accessible to some rather than others just down to the cost. Having worked through it though, I like the idea of gathering round and pouring over it together, taking turns to read and working through the activities together. A compilation in the future of the various Messy Minibooks would be a great resource. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis all said, as someone in my 30s I'm aware I'll have a particular view on the booklets appearance, their use and potential impact. Therefore on sharing it with some children, they commented thus: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e'It looks very fun for all of the family and I really like all the colours and pictures.' (6 year old) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'I think it would be good for all ages. The way it is put together, makes it interesting and fun. The treasure hunt idea is a really good beginning to the book, it draws you.'

Most discussions of 'direction' start with some diffidence about the term itself, and Tony Horsfall is no exception. He is aware that 'director' is also a 'suspicious' term in some circles, and settles on the term mentoring. But this is actually - as his first sentence concedes - 'a book about spiritual direction'. Horsfall has clearly experienced it, benefited from it, and practised it. Appreciating its value, he's keen to promote it 'in the evangelical and charismatic sections of the church'. So he takes pains to root it in Scripture, skims briefly over the breadth and depth of the Christian spiritual tradition, and quotes extensively from contemporary evangelical writers who have influenced him, many from a North American stable. So, for example, he reworks the traditional 'Three Ways' in models from three such writers. He writes accessibly and anecdotally (of himself and others) and makes full use of the image of 'journey' for chapter headings - 'The Scenic Route', 'Losing the Way', and 'Travelling by Night' give the flavour. He is an enthusiast for 'Group Travel' (small group direction), and his appendix on lectio assumes a group use of this. The appendices offer useful introductions to some prayer exercises. There is no mention of structured preparation or support for mentors\/directors (such as training courses or supervision). This book could helpfully fulfil its description at the start of this review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Peter Lippiett\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e From\u003cem\u003e The Church Times\u003c\/em\u003e - Summer 2009\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTony Horsfall's book looks at the philosophy behind spiritual direction, its place in scripture and history, what it means to be a spiritual director, and how we develop spiritual awareness. If you are already involved in spiritual direction, this book will be of only limited use to you. It is essentially an attempt to sell spiritual direction from scripture, and quoting Evangelicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch time is spent, early on in the book, justifying spiritual direction from scripture, and quoting Evangelical leaders who approve of the practice. This non-Evangelical reviewer found these parts of the book slightly tedious; and the description of spiritual direction as 'an enabling relationship which results in empowerment for the mentoree, specifically helping the person to access the multi-faceted grace of God for themselves' should give the reader some idea of the jargon that occasionally obscures the important points Horsfall makes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book gets better and better, however; and towards the end of the text his descriptions of small-group spiritual direction in churches, and the importance of retreats and away-days, are very good indeed. The exercises at the back of the book, although basic to anyone with much experience of spiritual direction, are well presented and explained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a shame that, of 27 books named in the bibliography, only three - by Merton, Nouwen, and Leech - would be recognised in the wider Church as classics of the genre; but, then, this book is not aimed at the wider Church. Horsfall is making a play for the heart of the Evangelical constituency; and this book, aided by Rob Frost's foreword, must surely succeed in its aim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ereviewed by Robert Mackley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviewed on the \u003cem\u003eCPAS Church Leadership Blog\u003c\/em\u003e - June 2009\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTony Horsfall is clear that this book is about spiritual direction, and the focus throughout is on this practice. But there is so much good material here that it would be a pity if readership was limited to those solely interested in spiritual direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach chapter offers a short, simple, sensitive reflection on an aspect of the mentoring relationship. These reflect the author's breadth of reading and personal experience as a spiritual director. Thus they offer great practical insight on 'how to mentor'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving read fairly extensively in this area, I think that this is among the best introductions to the subject that I have come across, characterised by a wonderful gentleness and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is well organised, beginning with helpful definitions. Tony then examines his subject biblically and historically, before going on to distinguish very helpfully between the qualities \/ skills \/tools of a mentor. He also examines the mentoring process itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chapter 'Road maps and guidebooks' outlines four ways of locating where someone might be in his or her 'development journey'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough I don't think I am particularly suited to being a spiritual director, I have still learned a great deal from this book on the 'ministry \/ leadership' aspects of mentoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by James Lawrence\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e From: \u003cem\u003ePresence: An International Journal of Spiritual Direction \u003c\/em\u003e - September 2008 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth: Sharing the Journey of Faith\u003c\/em\u003e is a book about spiritual direction. Though author Tony Horsfall prefers the term \u003cem\u003e mentoring, spiritual direction\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003e spiritual guidance\u003c\/em\u003e is interchangeable in this context. The introduction defines \u003cem\u003espiritual mentoring\u003c\/em\u003e uses lenses from a variety of people in their respective ministerial fields, addressing three key questions: 'Who is involved (people)? What actually happens (process)? What is it for (purpose)?' (14). Horsfall shows how spiritual mentoring differs from pastoral care, discipling, coaching, teaching, and counseling. Key to the mentoring process is the relationship between the mentor and the person being mentored. Horsfall writes, 'The Holy Spirit is the true Spiritual Mentor, and he is always with us, and always coming to our aid - but he often ministers to us through other people. Spiritual mentors are those who seek to cooperate with the Spirit in the process of coming alongside God's pilgrim people' (80-81).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHorsfall writes primarily for the 'evangelical and charismatic sections of the church' (11) and then widens his audience to those seeking mentoring, church leaders reenvisioning ministry, students preparing for ministry, and friends meeting together in faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth\u003c\/em\u003e offers seekers and opportunity to understand the potential benefits of spiritual mentoring, the history of spiritual direction in the Bible and in the Christian church, and the qualities and skills to seek in a mentor. The experienced spiritual mentor can use the text as a mirror to revisit how spiritual mentoring is practiced. Every reader is reminded to look for God in the world, in daily life, in specific circumstances, and in other people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA number of authors and important topics are introduced throughout the text. For example, discernment is often a key element of mentoring. Horsfall includes author Jeanette Bakke's outline of common elements for a discernment process and James Fowler's six stages of faith development, which address \u003cem\u003ehow we believe\u003c\/em\u003e rather than \u003cem\u003e what we believe\u003c\/em\u003e, highlighting crisis and growth along the way. An important chapter about the spiritual dark night experience teaches that 'God is actually paying us the greatest compliment when he allows the dark night to come upon us, because he is entrusting us with an experience not many could bear' (101). Horsfall addresses spiritual mentoring through small groups and outlines a clear facilitation process. He describes three types of small groups, using the work of Heather Webb: the story-centered group, the text-centered group, and the prayer-centered group. He emphasizes the importance of creating a safe space for people to share their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix A develops the five spiritual exercises that both the mentor and the mentee can use to recognize how God moves in daily life. Appendix B outlines and develops the method of \u003cem\u003e lection divina\u003c\/em\u003e, and Appendix C includes ethical guidelines for spiritual mentoring. The bibliography offers a helpful selection of books for further reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI recommend \u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth\u003c\/em\u003e for everyone who offers spiritual direction, spiritual guidance, or, as Horsfall calls, it, spiritual mentoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Bobbie Bonk\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrom \u003cem\u003eFaithworks Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e - Summer 2008\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon't be misled. Being 140 pages short and describing itself as an introduction to spiritual mentoring, you might think this is basic stuff for newcomers. Not so! This book provides rich refreshment for the head and heart. Underpinned by the metaphor of journey (as you'd expect) and with a strong biblical backdrop, the author carefully examines mentoring from 14 different aspects including the philosophy behind it, the tools required and addressing the issue of when God seems absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author's personal stories are sensitively woven in without being dominant; he also draws on sources both historic (Ignatius) and contemporary (Ortberg). Although lacking questions for reflection at the end of the chapters, which would have worked really well, there is plenty here to stimulate fruitful conversation. This book is for people experienced in mentoring as well as those exploring it for the first time; it is for leaders whether in a business, congregational or community context. It is also versatile enough to lend itself to use as a small group resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Chris Spriggs, Director of Lifespace.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2019-01-18T15:19:27+00:00","created_at":"2019-01-18T15:19:28+00:00","vendor":"Tony Horsfall","type":"Paperback","tags":["Discipleship","For churches","Jun-14","Leadership","Spirituality","Torch Trust"],"price":899,"price_min":899,"price_max":899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":21768838873188,"title":"Paperback","option1":"Paperback","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781841015620","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Mentoring for Spiritual Growth: Sharing the journey of faith - Paperback","public_title":"Paperback","options":["Paperback"],"price":899,"weight":126,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781841015620","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0148\/6107\/4532\/products\/9781841015620-l.jpg?v=1549043185"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0148\/6107\/4532\/products\/9781841015620-l.jpg?v=1549043185","options":["Format"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":3238873923723,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.657,"height":670,"width":440,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0148\/6107\/4532\/products\/9781841015620-l.jpg?v=1570098003"},"aspect_ratio":0.657,"height":670,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0148\/6107\/4532\/products\/9781841015620-l.jpg?v=1570098003","width":440}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eIn recent years the ancient Christian practice of spiritual direction has become increasingly popular, as more and more people from every part of the Church seek to know God more deeply.

I simply wanted to add to them. Your books: Rhythms of Grace, Working from a Place of Rest, and Mentoring for Spiritual Growth are being used to redirect our ministry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn August last year, after six years of running our smallholding in Cornwall as a place of prayer and recovery from addiction, mental illness... we came very close to burnout. God stepped in, through a number of friends and supporting churches, and put us on a sabbatical break. Friends in Birmingham, who had been to one of your seminars, suggested we read your books. It's now my second time reading through them and my wife and I can feel God calling us back to his vision for this place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThank you for helping us get back on track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom \u003cem\u003eRetreats 2009\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere is an introduction to spiritual direction, written by an evangelical Christian for evangelicals. Most discussions of 'direction' start with some diffidence about the term itself, and Tony Horsfall is no exception. He is aware that 'director' is also a 'suspicious' term in some circles, and settles on the term mentoring. But this is actually - as his first sentence concedes - 'a book about spiritual direction'. Horsfall has clearly experienced it, benefited from it, and practised it. Appreciating its value, he's keen to promote it 'in the evangelical and charismatic sections of the church'. So he takes pains to root it in Scripture, skims briefly over the breadth and depth of the Christian spiritual tradition, and quotes extensively from contemporary evangelical writers who have influenced him, many from a North American stable. So, for example, he reworks the traditional 'Three Ways' in models from three such writers. He writes accessibly and anecdotally (of himself and others) and makes full use of the image of 'journey' for chapter headings - 'The Scenic Route', 'Losing the Way', and 'Travelling by Night' give the flavour. He is an enthusiast for 'Group Travel' (small group direction), and his appendix on lectio assumes a group use of this. The appendices offer useful introductions to some prayer exercises. There is no mention of structured preparation or support for mentors\/directors (such as training courses or supervision). This book could helpfully fulfil its description at the start of this review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Peter Lippiett\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e From\u003cem\u003e The Church Times\u003c\/em\u003e - Summer 2009\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTony Horsfall's book looks at the philosophy behind spiritual direction, its place in scripture and history, what it means to be a spiritual director, and how we develop spiritual awareness. If you are already involved in spiritual direction, this book will be of only limited use to you. It is essentially an attempt to sell spiritual direction from scripture, and quoting Evangelicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch time is spent, early on in the book, justifying spiritual direction from scripture, and quoting Evangelical leaders who approve of the practice. This non-Evangelical reviewer found these parts of the book slightly tedious; and the description of spiritual direction as 'an enabling relationship which results in empowerment for the mentoree, specifically helping the person to access the multi-faceted grace of God for themselves' should give the reader some idea of the jargon that occasionally obscures the important points Horsfall makes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book gets better and better, however; and towards the end of the text his descriptions of small-group spiritual direction in churches, and the importance of retreats and away-days, are very good indeed. The exercises at the back of the book, although basic to anyone with much experience of spiritual direction, are well presented and explained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a shame that, of 27 books named in the bibliography, only three - by Merton, Nouwen, and Leech - would be recognised in the wider Church as classics of the genre; but, then, this book is not aimed at the wider Church. Horsfall is making a play for the heart of the Evangelical constituency; and this book, aided by Rob Frost's foreword, must surely succeed in its aim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ereviewed by Robert Mackley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviewed on the \u003cem\u003eCPAS Church Leadership Blog\u003c\/em\u003e - June 2009\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTony Horsfall is clear that this book is about spiritual direction, and the focus throughout is on this practice. But there is so much good material here that it would be a pity if readership was limited to those solely interested in spiritual direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach chapter offers a short, simple, sensitive reflection on an aspect of the mentoring relationship. These reflect the author's breadth of reading and personal experience as a spiritual director. Thus they offer great practical insight on 'how to mentor'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving read fairly extensively in this area, I think that this is among the best introductions to the subject that I have come across, characterised by a wonderful gentleness and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is well organised, beginning with helpful definitions. Tony then examines his subject biblically and historically, before going on to distinguish very helpfully between the qualities \/ skills \/tools of a mentor. He also examines the mentoring process itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chapter 'Road maps and guidebooks' outlines four ways of locating where someone might be in his or her 'development journey'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough I don't think I am particularly suited to being a spiritual director, I have still learned a great deal from this book on the 'ministry \/ leadership' aspects of mentoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by James Lawrence\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e From: \u003cem\u003ePresence: An International Journal of Spiritual Direction \u003c\/em\u003e - September 2008 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth: Sharing the Journey of Faith\u003c\/em\u003e is a book about spiritual direction. Though author Tony Horsfall prefers the term \u003cem\u003e mentoring, spiritual direction\u003c\/em\u003e or \u003cem\u003e spiritual guidance\u003c\/em\u003e is interchangeable in this context. The introduction defines \u003cem\u003espiritual mentoring\u003c\/em\u003e uses lenses from a variety of people in their respective ministerial fields, addressing three key questions: 'Who is involved (people)? What actually happens (process)? What is it for (purpose)?' (14). Horsfall shows how spiritual mentoring differs from pastoral care, discipling, coaching, teaching, and counseling. Key to the mentoring process is the relationship between the mentor and the person being mentored. Horsfall writes, 'The Holy Spirit is the true Spiritual Mentor, and he is always with us, and always coming to our aid - but he often ministers to us through other people. Spiritual mentors are those who seek to cooperate with the Spirit in the process of coming alongside God's pilgrim people' (80-81).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHorsfall writes primarily for the 'evangelical and charismatic sections of the church' (11) and then widens his audience to those seeking mentoring, church leaders reenvisioning ministry, students preparing for ministry, and friends meeting together in faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth\u003c\/em\u003e offers seekers and opportunity to understand the potential benefits of spiritual mentoring, the history of spiritual direction in the Bible and in the Christian church, and the qualities and skills to seek in a mentor. The experienced spiritual mentor can use the text as a mirror to revisit how spiritual mentoring is practiced. Every reader is reminded to look for God in the world, in daily life, in specific circumstances, and in other people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA number of authors and important topics are introduced throughout the text. For example, discernment is often a key element of mentoring. Horsfall includes author Jeanette Bakke's outline of common elements for a discernment process and James Fowler's six stages of faith development, which address \u003cem\u003ehow we believe\u003c\/em\u003e rather than \u003cem\u003e what we believe\u003c\/em\u003e, highlighting crisis and growth along the way. An important chapter about the spiritual dark night experience teaches that 'God is actually paying us the greatest compliment when he allows the dark night to come upon us, because he is entrusting us with an experience not many could bear' (101). Horsfall addresses spiritual mentoring through small groups and outlines a clear facilitation process. He describes three types of small groups, using the work of Heather Webb: the story-centered group, the text-centered group, and the prayer-centered group. He emphasizes the importance of creating a safe space for people to share their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix A develops the five spiritual exercises that both the mentor and the mentee can use to recognize how God moves in daily life. Appendix B outlines and develops the method of \u003cem\u003e lection divina\u003c\/em\u003e, and Appendix C includes ethical guidelines for spiritual mentoring. The bibliography offers a helpful selection of books for further reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI recommend \u003cem\u003eMentoring for Spiritual Growth\u003c\/em\u003e for everyone who offers spiritual direction, spiritual guidance, or, as Horsfall calls, it, spiritual mentoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Bobbie Bonk\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrom \u003cem\u003eFaithworks Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e - Summer 2008\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon't be misled. Being 140 pages short and describing itself as an introduction to spiritual mentoring, you might think this is basic stuff for newcomers. Not so! This book provides rich refreshment for the head and heart. Underpinned by the metaphor of journey (as you'd expect) and with a strong biblical backdrop, the author carefully examines mentoring from 14 different aspects including the philosophy behind it, the tools required and addressing the issue of when God seems absent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author's personal stories are sensitively woven in without being dominant; he also draws on sources both historic (Ignatius) and contemporary (Ortberg). Although lacking questions for reflection at the end of the chapters, which would have worked really well, there is plenty here to stimulate fruitful conversation. This book is for people experienced in mentoring as well as those exploring it for the first time; it is for leaders whether in a business, congregational or community context. It is also versatile enough to lend itself to use as a small group resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReviewed by Chris Spriggs, Director of Lifespace.\u003c\/p\u003e"}
