about kasey hitt, mdiv, csd
with spiritual
direction, I hope:
Prior to moving to the Nashville-area in June 2008, Kasey spent five years in
Washington. There, she earned a Masters of Divinity degree and a Certificate in
Spiritual Direction at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology (formerly Mars Hill Graduate School). She was a youth pastor for five years in Missouri before heading to the Seattle-area.
Being drawn to spiritual direction began after finding herself in the middle of burnout in a growing ministry. While God’s invitation had been there for a long time, it was during a week at a contemplative retreat for youth pastors she became passionate about spiritual direction and its practices. Realizing she had spent way too many hours “doing” things for and in the name of God and not much time simply “being” with God, she searched and was excited to find a seminary that offered a 2-year certificate in spiritual direction in addition to the MDiv.
Kasey is married to Russ, and they are parents to daughter, Alaina, and son, Alex.
To offer people time away from the noise of life to “be” with God where together they can discern the Holy Spirit’s presence and invitations in their lives.
To help pastors integrate
spiritual direction into their own lives and see God’s call
to wholeness woven into the fabric of their congregations.
