ENCOUNTER GOD RETREAT
What is an
Encounter God Retreat?
All of us get
stuck in life and can't seem to go forward spiritually and
relationally. Discouragement, doubt and fear then begin to set
in. Encounter God Retreats provide the place, time, and
opportunity for you to spend personal, devoted time with God
that will help you move beyond your present spiritual state and
into a stronger, more intimate relationship with God.
Why attend an
Encounter Retreat?
We have seen
many, many people who have attended an Encounter God Retreat
begin to experience the freedom that only Christ can give, such
as:
|
-
Breakthroughs in their relationship with God and others
in their lives |
|
-
Physical and emotional healing |
|
-
Hurtful thought and behavioral patterns have been broken |
|
-
Lives have been changed and transformed |
|
-
Wounded hearts have been restored and broken
relationships have been mended |
What happens
at an Encounter Retreat?
A series of
teachings are presented that help you to establish or deepen
your relationship with God, lead you through times of
forgiveness and healing, and help you to let God take your
hurts, wounds, fears, doubts, and burdens, and bring you to a
place of freedom and restoration. The teachings are
focused on God and what He can- and wants - to do in your life.
Time is provided so that each person can interact with God on an
individual basis. People truly experience God on an Encounter
speaking with them, healing them, and delivering them from their
pain, fears, and strongholds. You will never be put on the
spot, asked to pray out loud, forced to share, or anything else
that makes you uncomfortable. The focus is on the interaction
between you and God, not you and others who attend.
What are the
benefits of attending an Encounter Retreat?
Every person
who has attended an Encounter God Retreat has come away with a
deeper knowledge of God and His love for them, and most have
come away with dramatic stories of their encounter with Him.
They have experienced:
|
- Healing |
|
- Hope |
|
- Forgiveness |
|
- Freedom |
|
- GOD! |
What comes
after an Encounter?
We offer a
10-week Post-Encounter Class to everyone who attends an
Encounter God Retreat. This follow-up class is to help you
continue to grow and solidify what God began in your life at the
Encounter. We want to help people grow in their
relationship with God and commit to coming alongside them as
they learn more about themselves and God the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit. The Post-Encounter classes offer additional
teachings, people committed to pray for you and to be available
to you to help you walk out what God is showing and teaching
you, and the opportunity to be able to go further with God on
your spiritual journey. We hope that you will attend an
Encounter God retreat so that you will experience the healing,
hope, forgiveness, and freedom that only God can bring into your
life.
