Thank you Jeff,This idea was dicsussed at the Colorado retreat and was a turning point for me. I havehad wonderful experiences in the past, but over time, 20 years (!) I understand now that no matter how intense those experiences were, they would eventually fade. And I know enough, I don’t know everything, but I know enough to stop waiting.It’s the position that we take now, absolutely, without any excuses that will direct where we end up in the future. At this point in my life, waiting seems painful, selfish and ungrateful.

the voice of doubt. ‘What if you irgnoe that voice too?’ ”Wow. That just cuts right to the core! Brilliant questions, the whole thing. We really do have to keep coming back to these core questions again and again, otherwise it seems so easy to get lost. Thanks for drawing more attention to another really important point!

Thanks for cyriafling the context that this miraculous retreat was able to occur in Jeff. I hadn’t realized the full extent of the commitment it took to make this happen. Last year’s retreat was amazing and this one was even more so considering how smoothly it went for everyone, including the new attendees. Evolution is happening at a faster rate year to year.

Resting in the Spirit is a practice I have only recently began to engage in and added to my spiritual practice. There are times when my mind won’t allow me to reach that silence and it is a great labor and seemingly futile to forget my thoughts and the din of the world. But there was one time while praying in an empty church that I think I managed to forget the world and truly rest in the Spirit for a couple minutes. While in that mysterious space, however brief, there was healing, abundant love, and infinite yet specific mercy. I believe that encounter will keep me in this practice for the rest of my days. I thank you for these prayers, and pray that more Christians will enter silence and encounter the living God.
