#63 What If You Took An Anniversary Getaway With God?

We all have a deep need for meaningfulrelationships—first and foremost, with God.
What if, just as you intentionally set aside time to bewith your family at Christmas or get away with your spouse on your anniversary, you set aside time each year to get away alone with the Lover of Your Soul?
Join us this week as we explore the beautiful practiceof silence and solitude retreats—stepping away from the noise, responsibilities, and distractions of everyday life to simply be alone with God.
What exactly is a silent retreat?
Is it even Christian?
What do you do with all those quiet hours?


And what might be waiting for us when we intentionally make room to be alone with Him?
Answering that longing deep inside, once you taste it, you'll never want to be without it again.
