Saturday, November 22 | 8:30am-3pm | Atrium

We are all on a critical journey. It is a challenging, lifelong process, and we can only walk it with the help of companions and guides. This one-day retreat led by Fil Anderson offers the opportunity to unpack the stages of faith and spiritual formation: a way to deepen our faith and let go of all that is in the way of intimacy with God.

The Critical Journey is a process that requires us to welcome vulnerability and uncertainty, and ultimately leads us to surrender to God’s love. There, we find forgiveness, healing, acceptance, and, in later stages, stillness, wholeness, peace, and the ability to love others compassionately and selflessly.

Join us for a meaningful, lively, and experiential exploration of The Critical Journey.

November 5 | 6:00-8:00pm | St. Mark’s Atrium

More information on the book and devotional guide:

In a world that often paints motherhood with shades of exhaustion and lost dreams, Full Hands, Full Life offers a counter-cultural soul reboot. Over the course of 40 transformational weeks, Meredith gently guides you through life-giving rhythms rooted in Scripture, helping you rediscover joy, rest, and purpose in every season of motherhood.

Pair it with the Interactive Devotional Guide for journaling prompts, creative scripture art, meditative music, heartfelt prayer reflections, and inspiring future dreaming - crafted to draw you closer to Jesus while savoring the beauty of everyday motherhood.
