“I am blessed to serve 180+ churches over a 3-state area, my time in Spiritual Direction with Dan Crowley has helped me to lead those churches from a 'Well-Ordered Soul.' Dan Crowley’s ability to discern what the Holy Spirit was saying to me has been revolutionary and transformative. I am a different and better leader directly because of Dan’s influence on my life and spiritual journey.”

"When prompted by a trusted friend to seek out a Spiritual Director I confess I wondered why exactly. How would a relationship with a SD change my relationship with Jesus? That was about a year ago. Those questions have since been answered.

Jeremiah said 'let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me…' (Jer 9:23,24). Having been a Christ follower for more than 50 years, I can now see that I have invested much in “understanding” and not so much in “knowing.”  More in learning about, less in experiencing.

Spending time with Dan as a SD is a direct investment in growing my relationship depth, my experience of my loving savior, in truly “knowing.” In harmony with other things the Holy Spirit is leading me into in this season, time with Dan is opening my heart to experience the joy of truly living in relationship with Jesus.  In short, Dan is helping my knowing catch up with my understanding."

“Dan has been a kind and wise spiritual guide to me for more than three years. He is accompanying me on an intense journey of discernment during an especially challenging season. What I find especially helpful is his capacity to empathize with compassion and exhort with a gentle boldness that conveys Christlike shepherding. I'm grateful for the role he has had in my life.”

“Spiritual Direction with Dan Crowley has been immensely impactful. It has helped me slow down, pay attention to the Holy Spirit, and listen for what God wants to do in the lives of others as I pastor them. Each time we meet I think I have nothing to talk about and God always uses him to draw out something that needs my attention.”

— Andrew B.

“I imagine that most people in ministry are aware of the idea that our work for the Lord should be fueled by the Lord’s work in us. But I also wonder if most people in ministry know how to and/or actually practice slowing down enough to pay attention to the Lord’s work in us. Helping others do this is precisely what Pastor Dan Crowley has given his best life’s work to and, as a beneficiary of his ministry, I am forever grateful.”

— Adam A.

“I have been meeting with Dan for 8 years now and I’ve loved every meeting. I’ve appreciated his ability to actively listen and consistently draw me back to the activity of the Spirit at work in my life. Our sessions together regularly spill out into my relationship with my wife, how I father my children, or how I love the church. Dan is a wise and discerning spiritual friend to have along the journey.”

— Michael B.

“In my ministry, spiritual direction has been invaluable in equipping me to minister to others with the very things that the Holy Spirit has been revealing to me. Through our conversations, I've gained a clearer understanding of my gifts and callings, and I've been able to use those insights to provide meaningful support and guidance to those in need.”

— Brandon K.

"I cannot overstate the impact spiritual direction exerts upon my faith journey with God. Through Dan's discernment and gentle prodding I continually find myself in, as Dan puts it, sacred spaces. These spaces force me to confront the realities of God intersecting and renewing every space Dan and I find ourselves. God uses Dan in wondrous ways, and it is through Dan I find myself experiencing God in ways I've never imagined; healed in ways that are unbelievable; and able to love in ways only God can."
