Retreats

The spiritual discipline of retreat is not an option, it is essential to one’s spiritual health. Retreats are not “a little time off”, vacation, R & R, a conference, or a breather from stress. 

Spiritual retreats are the mainstay and stabilizing activity for the soul’s health. Why has our Christian culture not taught us this? Why is it relegated to an option?

Rhythm of Grace believes in the essential nature of spiritual retreats. In fact, retreats are fundamental to the Rhythm of Grace model of ministry. The foundational retreat series called "A Pilgrim's Process" contains our primary teachings on spiritual disciplines and Christian spiritual formation. We also administer silent retreats, directed retreats, and other types of retreats which provide space and instruction for practicing disciplines and spending time alone with God.
