Meditation is going to the word of God with expectancy – going to dwell deeply on the Living Word. The truths in God’s word about who he is and all he has done are radical. As those truths penetrate us and become deeply rooted in the core of our being, they transform our lives and our perspective about everything.

In this retreat, we will meditate on the word of God, trusting that his promises to bring transformation are true.

Scripture Meditation is Part 2 of the Let the Thirsty Come retreat series. Over the course of this 9-part series, we will explore different facets of spending extended, quality time with God.

The retreat is open to adults and teens (9th grade and above). Each part of the Let the Thirsty Come retreat series is a stand-alone event, so you do not need to attend all parts, and no previous participation is necessary for attending this retreat.

Logistics:
This retreat is the online version of the Scripture Meditation half-day retreat. If you are able to attend one of the in-person events, that would be highly recommended. The online version is provided for those whose schedule or travel limitations make the in-person events not feasible.

This retreat has both a online and off-line portion. The total amount of time for all activities is around 4 hours.
