"When I presented the idea of spending four hours of our leadership retreat doing a 'Soul Sabbath," the reception was lukewarm. But after some explanation based on the Half Day Soul Care Retreat materials I had downloaded, the sentiment started to change. The material was exactly what we needed. We started with worship based on the download and then went our separate ways. What happened in those 3 hours only testifies to the great need to do this more. A couple of team members expressed how reluctant they were in hindsight but they were overwhelmed at the impact this had. Thank you so much LTi for providing such a wonderful resource!"
