Men's Retreats

It’s an extended church service that you have to drive two or three hours to get to with a bit of recreation and enough fatty food and carbs to help you gain 10 pounds. The question is, if Jesus was planning a men’s retreat, he might approach things a little differently than we do:

Perhaps He would put a great deal of care and effort into calling, organizing and preparing his men before the retreat.

He might use parables, object lessons and challenges to the status quo to galvanize his men into teams during the retreat.

And maybe… just maybe…He would deploy these teams to do real ministry after the retreat.

This year our annual retreat is going to focus on intentional discipleship training and deployment of men for discipleship in the home, the marketplace, the church, and the community–along with a little recreation, fatty food, and carbs. (Well, you can’t have everything!)
