Weekend Retreats

Wilderness Encounters: Finding God Among Us
Exodus 17:7-15
Session One: Loss of Perspective
When we are in the wilderness it's easy to lose our perspective. The Israelites have been delivered from slavery and saw amazing things as God led them. Yet, they are missing Egypt.
Can include discussion questions for breakout sessions

Session Two: Finding Support
Discouragement, weakness and grumbling leave us vulnerable to attack. The Israelites fight their enemy and discover God is there in their midst.
Can include discussion questions for breakout sessions

Session Three: Corrective Perspective (Gaining Vision)
In our walk with God, we encounter times in the wilderness but keeping our perspective, remembering his faithfulness and keeping our eyes on who God is will equip us no matter what we face.
