The trauma of all they had been through has been redeemed and their spiritual journey now leads them to discern the mission Jesus has for them. Ruth and Steve discuss the creative tension in the spiritual life between mission and formation. Steve offers us an advice freebie and Ruth brings the season to a close by highlighting how mission cannot be discerned or sustained apart from commitment to an ongoing process of spiritual transformation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/strengthening-soul-your-leadership-ruth-haley-barton\/id1214483830\"><i class=\"fa fa-apple\" style=\"font-size: 150%;\"><\/i> Subscribe on iTunes<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/media\/player\/6bi8z-6d378a?from=shortcode&amp;width=100%25&amp;height=100&amp;share=1&amp;fonts=Helvetica&amp;auto=0&amp;download=0&amp;skin=1&amp;resource=episode%3D6bi8z-6d378a&amp;domain=com&amp;btn-skin=107&amp;rtl=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100px\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/season-two\/\">Listen to other episodes from Season 2<\/a> <a class=\"button-secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/transformingcenter.org\/strengthening-the-soul-of-your-leadership-podcast\/\">Access past podcast seasons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>In this podcast:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/onbeing.org\/programs\/martin-sheen-spirituality-of-imagination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Spirituality of Imagination<\/em><\/a> with Martin Sheen<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.transformingcenter.org\/products\/invitation-to-a-journey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Invitation to a Journey: A Roadmap for Spiritual Formation<\/em><\/a> by M.
