The vision of the Experiencing Freedom Retreat is to help you to see and embrace the freedom and life made available to Christians through Christ’s death and resurrection. It is based on the assumption we need to experience God and the promises of His Word. The two-and-a-half days you spend at the retreat are not filled with lecture. The time you spend includes corporate worship, personal and corporate prayer, teaching, discussion and interaction with other participants, a variety of interactive activities designed to help you experience the truths of God’s Word, and relational intimacy with God and the other participants.

The retreat is not designed to be a spiritual high point in your relationship with Christ. It is designed to help you experience key truths and promises from God’s Word so you can leave the retreat with a new faith and familiarity with the way God transforms and matures us through His Word and Spirit. Consider the retreat an opportunity for God to plant new seeds in your heart so they can grow to maturity in the months and years following.

Reasonable experiences and expectations you can have of the retreat include:

• Discovering who God is and experiencing His love through Christ’s death and resurrection.
• Discovering how to live in the freedom of Christ’s love and grace through the power of His Word and Spirit.
• Opportunity to encounter God in life transforming ways.
• Embracing the vision of life and freedom that comes from knowing why God created you and how His vision of life impacts your relationship with Him and others.
• Experiencing spiritual intimacy and deeper friendships with others who attend the retreat.
