I signed up for the Replenish retreat knowing that I had something to offer and God had something to deposit in me. I did not realize the depths of what was in store for my soul, my family when I returned, and my church.
I left replenish full of food but laughed enough to burn all the calories we ate. I left replenish with a bigger family of like-minded people who have become prayer warriors and encouragers.
I returned home to my wife who said, I loved the man I sent to replenish and I can already tell I love the man who returned, you have leveled up.
If a replenish retreat has crossed your path, go.
If a replenish retreat is something you think “It’s not for me”, it is, you should go!
If you feel like you do not have the time for the replenish retreat, that’s your sign that you need it. Go!
