Abstrakt

The author researched the effects of participating in a small group for spiritual guidance by eight lay women over a four-month period. Participants provided extensive data before and throughout the project in quantitative and narrative forms. All participants benefited from the interactions and felt nurtured in their faith, but each responded to the experience in individual ways. Narrative material proved more revealing than quantitative responses. Participants affirmed group spiritual guidance as the standard form of guidance in the Christian tradition, not a process that can be controlled or manipulated, but rather the gift of God to the people of God.
