Retreat Guides

COME: GOD’S INVITATION TO REST AND RENEWAL

by Christine Labrum

This booklet is an invitation to and guidebook for personal retreat. Retreat is a space of prayer to be with God. It is space for rest, repentance, and renewal. Let God nourish your heart.

Often our attention in the day-to-day is turned out toward the world—we live, we serve, and we love. That is essential and good, missional even.

YET...stewardship of our hearts is also essential. It is good to turn our attention to God and our own hearts for a focused, intentional period of prayer (a day, a weekend, or longer), so we can be responsive to God’s invitation to intimacy and transformation. This book will help you prepare for retreat and then guide you through four stages to engage with God.
