Where is God?
Wondering where God is in the middle of so much unrest, injustice, and suffering? Sometimes life shifts in ways you never expected. Whether you’re wrestling with a difficult diagnosis, standing at a crossroads, or trying to make sense of the latest headline, you need more than a burst of optimism.
How do I lean on God when I’m scared or confused?
There are times when you really need strength, comfort, and guidance. You long for a courage born of trust, rooted deep in your faith, and fueled by the promise of hope.
Redefine courage as the sacred meeting place of fear and trust.
Instead of the “bold movie-hero” image we often see, discover a more authentic courage that sustains you at the doctor’s office, in stressful conversations, and when you are ready to step into something new.
Together we will…
Learn how to discern between toxic worries and healthy concerns.
Reflect on letting go of what holds you back from listening to and trusting in God’s timing and plan.
Be inspired by Psalm 46:10 (“Be still, and know that I am God”) as a guiding strength.
Enjoy weekly prayer practices for courage and calm.
See How Courage Leads to Hope
This retreat intends to show you that you’re more courageous than you realize. You do not have to pretend to be more or less than who you already are. As you nurture your faith from within, you can begin to experience the Divine strength that has been with you all along. That is a reason for hope.

I am grateful for God's gentle "nudge" to take this retreat. It has helped me to find peace and comfort during this difficult time in our world. Each new session renewed my hope and purpose.
