January 2026: Winter Retreat
Winter retreat was over a week ago! What a phenomenal way to start the semester! It was our largest turnout ever (around 830 people came). The students are so hungry for God. You could see it in the way they worshipped, the way they loved one another, and the way they were so responsive to the teachings from guest speaker Marty Solomon. Marty did 5 different teachings through Genesis and myself and others were laughing, crying, getting convicted and a lot of audible responses from the audience. It had been a minute since I felt like I learned something new from Genesis. I really learned so much and so did our students. Here's a picture of Marty teaching. He has some pizzazz to his teaching style and the students loved it! You can learn more from him from the BEMA podcast. Here's a snapshot of worship from one of the worship sets. I wish y'all could've been there. There was so much energy and unity in the room. Dancing, jumping, shouting, hugging! We have much to lear...
