I live in St. Charles, MO where I practice contemplative Spiritual Direction. I graduated with my certificate to practice in 2022 from Sustainable Faith and opened my private practice, Pathways SD, shortly after. I love people and I desire to accompany them with curiosity and whimsy. I especially love to talk about the deep things of God.

After years of pursuing truth and righteousness in traditional academic and therapeutic settings, I began wondering what other ways I could grow in my faith. I soon found the joy and mystery of spiritual direction. I’m currently working with Memphis City Seminary in education leadership and as a spiritual director with clients nationwide. Education: Masters of Divinity, Covenant Theological Seminary; Job Position: Learning Resources Director, Memphis City Seminary.

After 40+ years of full-time ministry in congregations and at Stephen Ministries, I believe God is using my retirement years to help people fall more deeply in love with Jesus. To that end, I serve as a spiritual director, accompany people through the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, help lead our congregation—Vineyard Community Church in Kirkwood, Missouri—and play bass with the worship team. My wife, Martha Wiederanders, our Pudelpointer, Fritz, and I live in Webster Groves, a suburb of St. Louis.
