Formed After the Father’s Own Heart Men’s Retreat
“You formed my innermost being …” Psalm 139:13. A while back while hiking Elsie’s Peak I sensed the Lord impressing these words upon my heart.
We all need to be reminded that we are formed by the Father and reflect His image. This is especially important for men in this day—oh how the devil seeks to distort and destroy men in order to keep them from living out their Biblical role.
In response to the words from Psalm 139 we would like to invite fathers, sons, brothers, uncles, grandfathers–men of all ages–to gather in the Rocky Mountains and explore what it means to be Formed after the Father’s Own Heart.
We ask you to prayerfully consider joining us as we spend time encountering the Father’s Heart through His Word, listening to His loving voice while enjoying His spectacular creation and fellowship with other men.
