Interspiritual Foundations

Interspiritual Foundations is a cohort-based, 9-month experience designed to ground participants in the practices, wisdom, and ethical commitments that shape spiritual service and care.

This program also serves as the foundational year for all certification and ordination pathways.

Applied Interspirituality Program

The Applied Interspirituality Program is a two-year training program for those who feel called to live their spirituality in service to others.

In Year 1, students complete Interspiritual Foundations. In Year 2, students choose from one of four vocational pathways: Seminary, Spiritual Direction & Companioning, Doula Training, or Applied Interspiritual Leadership.

Behind them are several people standing, some with their hands over their hearts, in a respectful gesture.

Workshops

To support our students, affiliates, and community, we are offering a selection of workshops for the 2025/26 school year.

The theme for this year is applied spirituality with a focus on attaining a deeper understanding of world movements and how we, as spiritual change agents, can make a difference.

The One Spirit Approach

At One Spirit, learning is both sacred and alive. Rooted in compassion and rigor, our kaleidoscope teaching model invites students into a dynamic, co-creative experience of spiritual formation. This leading-edge model reflects the world we are building—one where wisdom flows in many directions, leadership is shared, and each voice matters.

Through integral, interspiritual, and developmental perspectives, we foster heart-expanding, personally transformative learning that radiates outward—cultivating authenticity, celebration, ethical integrity, and compassionate action in the world we serve.
