The Freedom to Explore

Remember how good it feels to explore? ⠀
⠀
As a kid you did it all the time. Tromping around, running, jumping off things and not telling your mom. What about now? Are you too busy? Too adult? Worried you might fall? ⠀
⠀
AT INTERMISSIONARY WE'RE ALL ABOUT EXPLORATION...⠀
⠀
Inside our heads, down at the river, up in the thin air, in the silence before dawn. We think important things happen in those places, things you can use as fuel for your life, later on when you've got a shortage. ⠀
⠀
THE THING IS, THIS TYPE OF EXPLORATION WON'T BE RUSHED.⠀
⠀
It sometimes takes undisturbed hours to let things we've tried to drown, rise to the surface and burst into tears and thin air. ⠀
⠀
It sometimes takes a friend, to climb down the cliff with you and hold your hand as you jump off together. ⠀
⠀
But sometimes it's just you, with your journal and pen, listening for the still small voice you think you can't hear anymore. ⠀
⠀
This is why at Intermissionary, we don't give you free time in between your sessions. ⠀
⠀
WE GIVE YOU SESSIONS IN BETWEEN YOUR FREE TIME. ⠀
⠀
That way you can explore the caverns of your heart without rushing. You can mull over some question we asked you, and entertain a dozen possible answers. You can sit with a listener or sit with your Lord. You and Jesus know what you're doing. We just make it easier.⠀
⠀
If you don't know Jesus or your relationship with Him is strained, it's ok. We've been there too. 

If any of this resonates, come join us this June in Chamonix, France at an Intermissionary Retreat. There are a handful of spaces left.
