As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17

Soul Care
How we respond to the events of our everyday lives is our spiritual journey. Soul care is a way of companioning others as they intentionally seek to notice and listen more closely to the guidance and transforming work of God in their everyday lives. Whether in a group or a one-on-one setting, soul care creates the opportunity to gain clarity and experience God’s grace and love in your present circumstances.
