Spring Break Camp 2011

Sun. March 20 – Fri. March 25
Spring Retreat is a unique retreat in that all of our general sessions are held in small classroom sized manuscript tracks. Manuscripting is a form of inductive bible study. You will receive the biblical text, double spaced with all of the chapter, verse, and headings taken out. Then as a class you will inductively study the text and see what the text has to say for itself. This retreat will not only teach you an invaluable way to study scripture, but will change the very way you view Jesus and the gospels. No matter where you are in your faith journey, you will walk away blown away by what you learn about Jesus and the Kingdom!
