Eating Honey with God
Sat 23 Oct (Canisius, NSW)
Sally Longley
When God uses images, they have immense power to transform us heart, mind and soul - from the inside out! The Scriptures offer many rich images given to us by God and of God. Some are so well known that we can almost become numb to their potency. This day will explore three images with time for solitude and silence. Here you can drink deeply from living waters and “feed on God in your heart, by faith”. Morning and afternoon teas & lunch provided. 9am-4pm ($65 live-out)
