The girlfriends discuss Thanksgiving plans, food, boundaries and more, plus a conversation about Spiritual Direction with special guest, Marie Griffith

The God And My Girlfriends Podcast

Nov 20 2023 • 59 mins

Our guest this week is writer, teacher, and spiritual director in training, Marie Griffith. Several years ago, Marie went through a season of untangling her faith from man-made traditions and came to know Jesus in a new way. She guides others in their spiritual formation, helps them know themselves and God better, and journeys with them through the stages of faith.

She earned an MA in Christian Spiritual Formation and Leadership from Friends University in May and paused her work toward an MDiv at Wesley Seminary while she completes her spiritual director training.
