Our Rhythms Retreats will take you on a journey to explore spiritual practices that cultivate intimacy with Christ, nurture your soul, and transform your life. Each retreat includes: teaching, discussion and practice of a particular spiritual discipline. This retreat is open to the public - all are welcome to attend (men & women of all ages).

We have many ways to approach the Bible. There are times for study, times for memorization, and for reading it through in a year. There is also a way to encounter God in the Scriptures through a slower, more meditative approach for the formation of our hearts versus only information for our minds. If you feel that reading the Bible has grown dull and lifeless, perhaps you are being invited into a new way of meeting God in the Scriptures. Lectio Divina (sacred reading) teaches us to approach the Word with expectancy - a prayer practice of dialogue with the God of the Bible. God desires to speak to you in a very personal and ongoing way. Let’s continue our series by cultivating our capacity to listen and respond.
