The Journey Home Retreat is a safe place to lay aside your responsibilities at home and work to simply be souls before God. The reality for all of us is that even when we are in a healthy season, we long for more, relationally.

During The Journey Home Retreat you’ll experience:

Relationally safe environments conducive for souls (which are very shy) to open up to love
A reformation of your own emotional image of God
Resources that will deepen all your relationships
Guided practices to help you live more at home in the love of God

I was impacted by the depth of God's love for me. I have known that in my head, and experienced his kindness, but something about the combination of experiencing God come to me in specific ways in this relational, intentional space opened a deeper level of experiential knowing in me.
