A New Chapter for The Compass Newsletter and The Trailhead Podcast

Today: an explanation and a free resource

Over the last two years, it’s been an honor to journey alongside you through The Compass newsletter and The Trailhead Podcast. Many of you have asked for tangible, actionable, and spiritually grounded resources you can actually use in daily life — and I’ve been listening.

Beginning May 1, here’s what’s new:

  • Deeper, more focused weekly content
    Rather than daily emails, you’ll receive four carefully curated pieces each week: a mix of reflection articles, spiritual tools, podcast episodes, and personal reflections.

  • Exclusive tools every Wednesday for paid subscribers
    These will include prayer guides, journaling worksheets, planning templates, and practical spiritual exercises — all designed to help you live out what we explore together.

  • More intentional, actionable practices
    From Sabbath rhythms to planning your week with spiritual clarity, these tools will help you integrate faith into the real rhythm of your life.
    Some tools will focus specifically on spiritual formation practices, while others will help you simplify your life and make space for what matters most.


🎁 Free Download: One-Day Silence Practice PDF

To give you a preview of what’s ahead, I’m offering a free spiritual formation tool:
a One-Day Silence Practice designed to help you step away from noise and reconnect with God through Scripture, stillness, and prayer.

This beautifully designed guide walks you through a full day of spiritual stillness, including:

  • Morning Scripture reflections

  • Midday quieting practices

  • Evening journaling prompts

  • An optional two-hour guided time of silence for those wanting a deeper encounter with God

🕊️ Feel free to share this guide with your small group, church community, or anyone who might benefit. It’s my gift to you—and yours to pass along.


✨ Why This New Direction?

Here’s what you can expect starting May 1:

  • More depth, less noise — Fewer but more meaningful posts so you’re not overwhelmed.

  • Practical tools every week — Spiritual formation you can actually use.

  • Opportunities to grow in community — Content that helps you not just think, but act.
