What’s Your Story?

We all carry a story shaped by our work, relationships, struggles, values, and hopes.

Higher Calling helps individuals, leaders, and communities move beyond the checklist toward a deeper sense of purpose. Through coaching, consulting, writing, spiritual reflection, and public conversation, this platform invites you to discover the story you are living— and the higher calling that may be emerging within it.

Coaching

Do you yearn for deeper fulfillment, a sense of purpose that resonates beyond the everyday? At Higher Calling, we help individuals and organizations envision, organize, and implement their best selves – their higher calling – in all aspects of life. Drawing inspiration from the deeply transformative principles of Ignatian spirituality, we guide you on a journey of self-discovery, strategic planning, and meaningful action.

We help you develop your Higher Calling Story that grounds and centers you, motivates you, and what others see in you? We help you really know your life story and how it moves you in your career, your personal life and commitments, and gives a true sense of success and fulfillment.

We offer different coaching packages that will assist individuals or groups to meet their varying degrees of need to move toward the goals that align with your Higher Calling.

We also offer intensive group workshops and retreats to introduce people to coaching and to those who want to experience group coaching with a supportive community of people addressing the higher callings in their lives.

Consulting

If you need help to think through and analyze challenges in your organization, then a Consultant can help identify the organizational and cultural dynamics that are limiting your organizational higher calling, potential, and goals so that you and your organization can move to its full mission and vision.

Higher Calling Consulting specializes in organizations serving small businesses, non-profit and religious organizations. We can help you develop your organization’s Higher Calling Story…

  • Align your mission and services with your core values and principles,

  • Identify and evaluate ongoing organizational mission and how the mission is being achieved and received.

  • Organize and lead board and membership meetings, develop your board of directors, advisors, and volunteers

  • Analyze and develop goals and timetables to address community relations strategies and programs.

Covenings, Seminars & Publications

Higher Calling is also a place for public reflection, conversation, and formation. Through essays, seminars, retreats, online convenings, and future publications, I hope to create spaces where faith, reason, justice, and personal vocation can meet.

Much of our writing grows out of the same questions I bring to preaching, coaching, and civic life: How do we live with integrity in anxious times? How do we form consciences capable of truth, compassion, and courage? How do we build families, workplaces, churches, and a democracy worthy of human dignity?

Our Substack writing, including Common Sense Liberalism and Common Sense Sundays, brings together scripture, sociology, democratic ethics, Judeo-Christian principles, and the lived experience of ordinary people trying to do the right thing. These essays are not simply commentary. They are invitations to think more deeply, listen more honestly, and respond more faithfully to the moral challenges of our time.

Higher Calling Convenings extends this work through online seminars, retreats, public conversations, and formation programs on topics such as faith and justice, leadership, democracy, vocation, grief, discernment, and the common good.
