Summary
We have this anchor of hope, firm and secure (Hebrews 6:19).
The shifting winds of change in the last few months have sent all of us rocking. How can we hold onto hope and let that be our anchor? How can we lean on God's promises to provide our firm foundation?
Even though life changes, there is a constant. Throughout the centuries, God is a steady, unshakable, and enduring presence. The presence of God in our life offers us the gift of the Promises of God that provide a firm foundation to build our life upon and anchor our hope.
In this live virtual retreat, Becky Eldredge (spiritual director, retreat director, and author of Busy Lives & Restless Souls and The Inner Chapel) will help illuminate the promises God made to us. She will share practical tools and prayer practices for going to our inner chapels that will help us anchor our lives in God’s firm foundation and increase our hope, even in the midst of steady, shifting winds.
Featuring guided prayer, live talks from Becky Eldredge, handouts and resources, and time for silent reflection. Check-in begins at 6:15 pm Central Time.
Please Note: Registration ends at 3pm the day of the retreat.
