Leader Retreats
For Churches, Denominations, & Organizations
Our research has shown that leaders learn best in community as well as in a process-oriented format. In our post-pandemic world we are all aware how leaders need support and specialized training to navigate the ever-changing waters of change and transition.
For the past ten years we have been designing 1-3 year immersion retreat experiences for pastors, staff, denominational leaders, and spouses. They include two or three immersions per year for 1-3 years depending on your schedule and needs. The content and focus of each immersion experience is unique, focusing on all dimensions of our holistic formation. Sessions are facilitated by our team of content experts in various fields.
A sample of topics covered include:
- The dimensions of our formation
- The pastor as person
- Core emotional issues leaders face
- Leadership pathologies
- Understanding grief, loss, & trauma
- Why do we need people in our lives?
- Cultural intelligence
- Family systems
- Sleep, rest, & rhythms
- Holistic eating & nutrition
- Adrenaline & stress
- Embodiment
- How to detox your brain
- Living the gospel as good news
