WE ARE ALL CREATED IN GOD’S IMAGE AND FOR A PURPOSE THAT WILL HAVE A LASTING IMPACT ON THE WORLD AND ON THE KINGDOM OF GOD. OVER TIME, THE ENEMY USES LIFE’S EXPERIENCES TO CONFUSE US OUT OF OUR IDENTITY IN CHRIST. HE MANIPULATES US INTO A PERVERTED AND DISTORTED IDENTITY THAT HE CAN USE TO INHIBIT US FROM REACHING OUR FULL POTENTIAL IN CHRIST. HE DOES THIS BY INFLUENCING US TO BELIEVE THE LIES HE SAYS ABOUT US RATHER THAN WHAT OUR CREATOR GOD HAS SPOKEN CONCERNING US. HE TEMPTS US INTO A LIFE OF SELF-SABOTAGE WHERE WE RUN FROM THE WILL AND LOVE OF GOD INTO HIS TRAPS OF BONDAGE. THE ENEMY WANTS US TO BELIEVE THAT WE ARE UNLOVED, UNWORTHY, UNCHOSEN, ABANDONED, NEGLECTED, FORGOTTEN, ALONE, UNREDEEMABLE, AND DESTINED TO A PURPOSELESS LIFE. THE LORD JESUS SAYS, WE ARE LOVED, CHOSEN, ADOPTED, CHERISHED, REMEMBERED, A PART OF A GOD-ORDAINED COMMUNITY, REDEEMED, AND FULL OF LIFE AND PURPOSE. THE ENEMY IS THREATENED BY THE BELIEVER WHO IS SURE ABOUT WHO GOD HAS CALLED THEM TO BE AND OPERATES IN THEIR IDENTITY AND PURPOSE. SATAN IS THREATENED BY THE BELIEVER THAT IS BOLD ENOUGH TO PROCESS THROUGH THEIR TRAUMA AND PAIN PURSUANT TO GOD’S HEALING AND DELIVERANCE.

​

THE RECOVHERY IS A RETREAT DESIGNED TO HELP US DO JUST THAT AND DO IT TOGETHER WITH OTHER WOMEN WHO ARE READY FOR MORE! THROUGH PRAYER, SELF-EXAMINATION, MEDITATION, JOURNALING, GROUP SESSIONS, AND INDIVIDUAL COUNSEL, WE WILL JOURNEY TO RECOVHER! THIS JOURNEY WILL REQUIRE SELFLESSNESS, SELF-AWARENESS, INTENTIONALITY, HUMILITY, OPENNESS, AND TRANSPARENCY. EACH PARTICIPANT IS TASKED WITH TWO MAJOR COMMITMENTS. THE FIRST IS SHOWING UP FOR THEMSELVES. HEALING AND DELIVERANCE ARE AN INDIVIDUAL CHOICE AND RESPONSIBILITY AND SHOULD BE THE PRIORITY OF ALL PARTICIPANTS. THE SECOND IS SHOWING UP AS A COACH TO THEIR COMMUNITY OF SISTERS. WHILE ONE CANNOT DO THE WORK FOR ANOTHER, ONE CAN CERTAINLY UPHOLD THEM AND KEEP THEM ACCOUNTABLE.

​

THIS YEAR'S THEME IS "YOUR PLACE IN THE JOURNEY". IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE JOURNEY. GOD IS WITH YOU THROUGH EVERY STAGE OF YOUR JOURNEY. HE'S ORDERED YOUR STEPS, BUT THE JOURNEY DOES NOT START UNTIL YOU DO. YOU HAVE AUTHORITY IN THE JOURNEY! THE ROUTE THAT GOD HAS YOU ON MAY NOT BE FAVORABLE, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT NOT TO DESPISE THE MIDDLE. THERE IS A REASON FOR YOUR JOURNEY. YOU ARE NOT MEANT TO STAY AT YOUR STARTING DESTINATION. THERE MAY BE ROADBLOCKS AND DETOURS ALONG THE WAY. LEAN INTO THE REROUTE PROVIDED BY GOD. HE'LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH NAVIGATING THE UNKNOWN. YOU HAVE TO PARTICIPATE SO YOU CAN PARTAKE IN ALL THAT GOD HAS FOR YOU ON YOUR JOURNEY.
