Ruth Haley Barton Biography
Ruth Haley Barton is a spiritual director, author, teacher, and retreat leader whose work has influenced the Christian spiritual formation movement. Barton holds a Doctor of Divinity from Northern Baptist Theological Seminary and is the founder of the Transforming Center, a ministry focused on supporting the spiritual health of pastors, Christian leaders, and the organizations they serve. She established the Transforming Center with others who shared a commitment to deeper transformation in Christ's presence and discerning the will of God. Barton studied at Northern Seminary, the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation, and Loyola University Chicago Institute for Pastoral Studies. She has served on the pastoral staff of several churches, including Willow Creek Community Church, and is Professor of Spiritual Transformation at Northern Seminary.
Barton is the author of several books on Christian leadership and spiritual formation, including "Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership," "Invitation to Solitude and Silence," "Sacred Rhythms," and "Embracing Rhythms of Work and Rest." "Sacred Rhythms" is recognized as a spiritual formation classic and is included in the IVP Signature Collection. Her works, such as "Sacred Rhythms," "Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership," and "Pursuing God's Will Together," present her approach to leadership development, which centers on intentional spiritual practices, discernment, and community. She also co-authored "An Ordinary Day with Jesus," a spiritual formation curriculum developed with John Ortberg.
Barton's perspective on leadership is grounded in her definition of spiritual formation as the process of being conformed to the image of Christ for the sake of others. Through her writing, speaking, and leadership retreats, Barton has guided Christian leaders in adopting a spiritually grounded model of leadership that prioritizes spiritual health and well-being over busyness and achievement. Her ministry addresses the soul care needs of pastors and leaders, emphasizing that personal transformation is essential to effective leadership.
Barton teaches and leads the Transforming Center's two-year Transforming Community experience and other events, including the Pursuing God's Will Together Discernment Summit for Leaders and Becoming a Transforming Church retreats and programs. She hosts the podcast "Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership," which explores transforming leadership and maintaining a life-giving connection with God in ministry. Barton's speaking engagements include events such as the Gospel Gathering and appearances for organizations like Pioneer Bible Translators. Her scholarship, pastoral experience, and contemplative practice have established her as a trusted voice in Christian spirituality and spiritual formation.
