The Call to Intimacy with God…

 

Why a Retreat?

“In repentance and rest is your salvation. In quietness and trust is your strength” (Is. 30:15).

 

Men today are working hard to balance mounting responsibilities in a world that has its

foot heavy on the gas pedal with little patience to wait for any who choose to slow down. 

From the moment the alarm sounds in the morning, It’s…Go! Do! Accomplish! The going,

the doing, the accomplishing are not necessarily bad things. Sadly, however, far too many

men go through their busy days without a thought about what God might have for them to do.

​

In the garden, God gave work to Adam. At the same time, Adam enjoyed God’s presence and knew Him intimately. It was out of intimacy that Adam received his work and performed it. Christian men still hear the call to work – it’s a part of life. “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”(Ephesians 2:10) To receive our work from God, it is so important to spend time with Him and listen for His voice.  Our retreats are designed to help men find the time, quiet the heart, learn intimacy with God, and listen. We teach this intimacy and listen to God as a way of life, not just for a day or a weekend.
