About Me

JWebb: I am a husband, father, son, brother, and friend. By personal identity I am an explorer, continually discovering new vistas in the terrain of the soul. Vocationally, I have spent most of my adult life as an ordained minister guiding others in spiritual formation and contemplative spirituality. After over 17 years as the founding director of The Center for Christian Spirituality (Houston, TX), I am now helping persons connect more deeply with God, self, others, and the created world as a spiritual companion and guide. I find life in my own exploration and in accompanying others on the spiritual journey of exploration.
