Lead Pastor – Bend, OR
Several years ago, I came to a place in my journey with Christ where it was clear I needed someone to help me pay attention to what God was doing in my life. I didn’t need a new program or formula, I needed a person who would take my relationship with God as seriously as I did, and was able to hear the unique story the Spirit was inviting me into. In Winslow, that’s exactly what I’ve found. He has become a traveling companion with whom I am able to trust the deepest parts of myself, and a friend of my soul who has helped me listen to my life and hear the voice of God.
As I further journey toward seeing the real freedom in being a daughter of Christ, Winslow helps me really look at the years of built up coping layers and identify truth from lies.

As a newcomer and recipient of Spiritual Direction I was unsure of what or how the experience should be; I approached it with guarded optimism. The process has been both gentle and challenging as Winslow partners with the Holy Spirit in focusing on perspectives or mindsets in the spiritual formation of [my] relationship with God. Those personal insights and revelations have been helpful and often liberating, I always leave with new points to ponder and a lighter feeling in my spirit.
I grew up in the church and attended a Christian college but I have never experienced the kind of personal spiritual growth that I have since working with Winslow as my spiritual director. Our sessions include conversation and prayer in a relaxed atmosphere. His questions always prompt me to consider things about God and myself that I likely wouldn’t have explored otherwise. His ability to point me to a scripture passage or to an author for further study almost always lends itself to more personal discovery as I listen to and seek more of Holy Spirit.

As a husband, father, and executive pastor it’s easy for details and the input of others to blend in with the voice of the Father. Winslow consistently helps me sift through my stuff to identify His invitations and rest.
Spiritual Direction with Winslow has been more helpful than I imagined. We started meeting as part of a seminary requirement and have chosen to continue meeting well beyond those first 4 sessions. Winslow listens well, asks great questions, tells meaningful stories, and helps me to see and hear the work of the Spirit in and around me.
