Two Day Event
Friday Evening - Saturday Evening (Sunday Optional)
The subject of family is at the heart of the Gospel message, as modelled by Jesus with his earthly family, his close friends and his heavenly Father. Understanding the divine principles of being in God’s family is essential to understanding our position, role and responsibilities within His plans and purposes for our life.
As adopted children of the Heavenly Father, we not only enjoy the blessings of our adoption, but we must take seriously the responsibility that comes with it. Each one of us with a unique part to play as a full and active member of His family, regardless of our background, skills or qualifications.
This course will give an eternal perspective of what it means to be in God’s family and how you can grow and flourish in that place of belonging and rest. It will look at what it means to share in His work, pray His family prayer and draw strength from the family for your everyday life.
This course is part of our exciting Explore programme. You can join any Explore course individually, but to receive the full experience we recommend you register for the entire series of this life-transforming programme.
EXPLORE IS FOR ANYONE WHO…
…desires a deeper, closer and more meaningful relationship with God
…knows there are issues in their life which are holding them back
…wants to understand God’s plan for their own life so they can walk in it
…wants to grow in their understanding of healing so that they can help others
I am so thankful for the retreat and for the chance to know God in a whole new way... as a Father who loves us unconditionally. His love is so freeing and so real! I know that the Spirit is in me and with me.
