Retreats and Events
I truly love teaching. I have a Master’s degree in middle grades education as well as spiritual formation and direction. Learning by doing is the way I was trained and the way I enjoy teaching. Each retreat or event I do will contain components of teaching, doing, and sharing. I’ll interject a good dose of laughter too. Learning is always better if it’s fun! I would love to join you at your next retreat or event. Below are some teaching topics.
Identity and Purpose
Part of slowing down is also learning in whom our identity lies and what our purpose is. We will walk through exercises and activities learning how to rest in our identity as a child of Christ. After that, we will begin to identify our purpose (or purposes).
Slow Down
The best way I’ve learned to slow down is through the use of spiritual disciplines. I’ll be happy to teach a combination of any of the following disciplines. Participants will be given time to practice as both a group and individually:
-
Silence/Retreat/Solitude
-
Sabbath
-
Centering Prayer
-
Imaginative Prayer
-
Examen
-
Lectio Divina
-
Journaling
-
Thankfulness/Gratitude Journaling
-
Discernment
-
Creating a Rule of Life
-
Creating a Beloved Charter
-
Spiritual Direction
Simplify
Do you want ideas on how to simplify your already hectic life or do you want tips and tricks to simplify various areas of your life from your lifestyle to your home life to your family life to your activities? You’ll enjoy all the stories of how I learned from doing things the wrong way or by just being so ridiculously cheap and lazy that I simplified naturally!
Small Groups
Would you like to take a small group for a weekend getaway? We'll head to the North Georgian mountains for the weekend. Choose any of the topics above and pick a date. I'll let you know if it's available!
