Preachers know their people, know the pain of their community, and can transform that pain into meaningful, forward-looking, faith. This retreat will help you get past the cool-youth-pastor stage of development, leading you to become a prophetic professional, accurately bringing scripture to bear with the challenges of our times. You will lead your church into clarity culturally, personally, and relationally.
