I think today's Church has done enough retreating.
Retreats, Retreats and more Retreats! Isn't it time the Church does some advancing?
The way I look at it, retreats were created by Jesus to pull aside, regroup, and motivate His disciples who were physically tired and spiritually exhausted from 24/7 serving. Honestly now, Is the average American Christian today really tired and exhausted because of they're working for God 24/7 ?
I think not!
Today's Church retreats should be better named. Rename them, maybe, R&R (Rest and relaxation.) or R&M (Reorientation and Motivation) or FD (Fellowship Day!)
But retreat? Come on!
To a soldier, retreat means only one thing ... and it isn't advance.
