becoming

I  am Chin Chen Esther and I am a Spiritual Director.  I completed my training with Spiritual Growth Ministries, New Zealand in 2021 and is a member of ESDA (Evangelical Spiritual Directors Association). 

I have been receiving regular personal spiritual direction since 2010. I am grateful to God and to my own spiritual directors who have helped me attend to my interior life and to the invitations from God. I desire to encourage others to know God beyond intellectual awareness and to become increasingly aware of God in their life experience.  I have also completed training in understanding dreams (Dreamwork), Interactive Drawing Therapy, Mindfulness practices and Enneagram.   

I am also a NIE trained teacher and have been teaching young children with special needs for the past 20 years. I have a Master in Education (Developmental Psychology) from Nanyang Technological University of Singapore and a Graduate Diploma in Christian Studies from Biblical Graduate School of Theology. 

Besides journeying alongside and encouraging others in their spiritual journey, I enjoy painting, gardening, taking walks with friends and cycling.
