The Inner Garden

A 6-week spiritual formation journey

The Invitation

Daily scripture, prayer rhythms, and reflective practice to tend the soul guided by the Shepherding Psalm and the quiet practice of presence.

The Inner Garden is a six-week journey of becoming a deliberate tending of the soil of the soul. Each week pairs a movement of formation with a living scripture and a small, repeatable practice, so that what begins as a single seed grows into a sustainable rhythm of presence with God.

“The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul.”

Psalm 23:1–3
