Retreat Overviews:

Real People, Real Communication

Each of us desires relationships that are healthy–with trust, compassion, laughter, honesty and touch.
And each of us moves away from the very things we desire.
Here’s the deal: Intimacy has little to do with the other person.  Intimacy begins with me.

What does it mean to be real, honest and authentic?
What does it mean to practice real communication?
Why are we afraid to be real?
Terry teaches us–with very practicable tools–about a life with real and open communication. . .
built on a foundation of kindness, appreciation, sensitivity, and awareness.

What are the benefits?  We will learn that healthy relationships are places –

  • Where we can be thankful for little gifts and small victories.
    Where we can catch those around us doing something right.
    Where we learn to see the sacred in the ordinary.
    Where we honor and celebrate uniqueness and differences.
    Where we can laugh and play.
  • Where we don’t need to pretend we’ve got our act together.
    Where we can tear up our score cards, no longer worrying about what “they” think.
    Where we don’t need to continue wondering, “Are we there yet?”
  • Where can receive grace and embrace our fault lines.
    Where we have no need to change or manipulate or fix anyone else.
    Where we know that our identity is not tied to our “performance.”
  • Where no longer need for life to be fair.
    Where we no longer need to live vicariously through others.
    Where we can give up our need for IF ONLY, infinitely preparing to live.

Shall We Dance?

We’ve been told that life is about achievement, appearance and accomplishment.  We live hectically and self-conscious, looking over our shoulders to see who is watching and who is judging, always fearing we will not measure up. We put life and God in a box we hope we can control. We are image conscious and tense. And on the dance floor of life, we become easily afraid.
In this workshop, Terry invites us all to dance as if “nobody is watching.”
What would our life look like if we cherished our days, and lived vulnerable, curious, lighthearted and playful?
What would it mean to live with a heart full of awe and love. . .for God, and for God’s creation?
Where is the healing power of laughter?
What does it mean when God takes the box we’ve created for control, flattens it, and makes a dance floor, for us to celebrate the risk and gift of life?
And what does it mean, when the passion of our dance spills over to those around us?
So, shall we dance?
