Welcome to the Cottage!

My name is Susan Forshey. I am the assistant professor of Discipleship and Christian Formation at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary, and a transitional deacon in the Episcopal Diocese of Iowa. A retreat leader and spiritual director, I write and speak about the brain and spiritual practices, prayer, Christian education, monasticism and contemplative living. My cat, Minerva, is patiently teaching me to put down my smartphone and pay attention.
