Build your own seasonal retreat programmes with this unique resource. Offering material for use throughout the Christian year, it uses the Church's seasons to explore the different ways that Christ meets us, the saving mysteries of each season, and the ways that the seasons resonate with varying life stages:

*Advent: Beginning again
* Christmas: Finding God
* Epiphany: Seeing glory
* Lent: Finding acceptance
* Passiontide: Growing in compassion
* Easter: Growing in faith
* Ascensiontide: Making sense of it all
* Pentecost: Sensing the Spirit
* Ordinary Time: Visions of the whole.

Drawing on on Scripture, Christian tradition and contemporary psychological insights such as the Enneagram, it offers two outline retreat programmes for each season, with a wide range of imaginative activities and spiritual exercises. The outlines are readily adaptable to half day, whole day or weekend retreats and are suitable for group or individually-guided retreats.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    Another great book in the Creative Ideas series from Canterbury Press. This time providing 15 'retreats' that span the whole of the church year and it's seasons, including Ordinary Time. There are within these 15 sessions a host of good ideas and activities that really can be tailored to suit a long or short 'retreat' or workshop session. In fact the truth is they are so well done that you can use them for a lot of things that wouldn't really fit the retreat heading but would suit an activity session, a meditation group or any number of things between. Excellent resource material for spiritual mentors, retreat workers, ministers ... or to my mind even just your ordinary person that is looking for something they can use to take them deeper through the church year on their own spiritual journeys and retreats. A really good retreat resource.
