TAKE 5 | Mini-Retreat - Retreat as a Leadership Strategy (Part 2)
We continue our look at the need for retreat as leaders and the wisdom of Elton Trueblood, spiritual writer from the Quaker stream of our faith. After a very full fourth of July celebration day, I am guessing many of you are thinking like me that you need a day of vacation to recover from your day of vacation. I encourage you to schedule a day this month to retreat. Amy and I are celebrating our 25th together with our Creator immediately after our week of camp. We have put this retreat in ahead of time so we don't miss the moment. When is your next moment?
TAKE FIVE | Mini-Retreat - Retreat as a Leadership Strategy (Part 1)
My grandfather who died before I can remember, was a lone Presbyterian among three Philadelphia Quaker brothers. I first found Elton Trueblood, a Quaker spiritual writer of the 20th century, on his library shelf. Today, we explore the need for regular retreat beyond the five minutes we take weekly to read this blog. As I head up to the lake home my grandfather blessed our future family generations with for rest, recreation, and retreat, I am grateful to catch a glimpse of how one of his spiritual readings may have led to the purchase.
