Join us for a time of connection, reconnection, rest and abundance at the next overnight Praxis Alumni Retreat.

When we last gathered overnight in 2023, Trevor Hudson imparted a jewel of wisdom that has become a core part of the Praxis arc: Insight is the consolation prize. Encounter is the grand prize.

Often, we come across an insight of life with God and call it enough. What we might remember is that insights are invitations to encounter with the Trinity. We just need to hang with it.

Joining us in October will be pastor, author, and teacher Dave Ripper. As our primary guide within the rhythms of this Praxis-style retreat, Dave will help us to re-encounter scripture on an experiential level.

Retreat registration includes overnight accommodations & meals. Spouses are welcome and encouraged to join, as we continue to be curious about living the with God life. All rooms will likely be double occupancy unless attending with a spouse.

Some more about our new friend Dave:

Dallas Willard is one of the most beloved figures in the modern spiritual formation movement, and his insights into Scripture have been described as revolutionary. Willard read the Bible uniquely—with the reverence of a Southern Baptist, the intellect of a philosopher, and the heart of a mystic. Join us on retreat with Dave Ripper, pastor and author of Experiencing Scripture as a Disciple of Jesus: Reading the Bible like Dallas Willard, as Dave guides us to experience the presence of God through the pages of His Word—just like Dallas did. You’ll discover that the Bible is far more than a book we should study. Scripture is a gateway to eternal living.
