THRIVE - Maturity Retreats

Take yourself from frustration to hope!

Just below the surface there is a lot of frustration and hopelessness in many churches, couples and families because what started out as a dream come true just doesn't work like it should. If you have been reading the Life Model and asking yourself the question, “How do I get this into my community?” read on. It only takes one motivated person like you to get a group together and you don’t have to be a pastor to make a difference. Before the overview section of maturity teaching finished on the first night people have gone from dry to attentive, hopeful and excited as they realize what has been missing and how to find it.

Listen to Dr. Jim Wilder's compelling teaching on elder maturity.

"On behalf of our Board of Directors and Staff, we enthusiastically share some insights and feedback from the participants who attended the Maturity Weekend" Mark Elvin - Executive Director of FLIGHT Ministries Edmonton, Canada

-Chris Coursey was relaxed, yet professional, easy to listen to and very knowledgeable. The examples he shared were very helpful.

-The information helped me remove judgment from people and focus on their needs.

-I appreciated how Chris was able to tie together the physiological aspects of maturity with the spiritual aspects of maturity.

-I benefited from the statement, "If you didn't mature anymore than you are right now, God would not love you less. Value is not tied to maturity."

Maturity is an unexpected solution to troubled marriages, problems with children, addictions, depression, character weakness, spiritual dryness, the list goes on. Jesus offered unexpected solutions throughout His earthly ministry. For example, rather than deliver Israel from Rome's oppression like the rabbis expected, Jesus fed people miracle bread and taught them Kingdom life. Instead of preventing Lazarus from dying like his family hoped, Jesus shows up late and raises His friend from the grave. There are numerous Scriptural examples where Jesus frequently responded to people's problems and needs in unorthodox ways. All too often we Christians look to talk show hosts, magazines and the media to tell us what we need or how to fix what ails us. We even doggedly try to do all the right things in life and still fall short of the results we expect. Maturity is one solution you do not want to miss. Read the rest of the article...
