 You Can’t Pour From an Empty Cup

15 Yet the news about him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses.  But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.  Luke 5:15-16

Withdrawal Isn’t Weakness—It’s Wisdom

31 Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”  Mark 6:31

Your “No” Creates Space for God’s “Yes”

23 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone,  Matthew 14:23

Families Thrive When Leaders are Spiritually Filled

These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Deuteronomy 6:6-7

This summer, we didn’t just take a break—we found the breakthrough our souls needed to walk refreshed, refocused, and rooted in God’s presence.
