Anyone with a cursory knowledge of the Bible and contemporary Christian faith can name most of the Church holidays and key dates we choose to mark each year, but many people may not understand that the development of the Church calendar was quite intentional and relates directly to our Christian life.

Celebrating the Seasons of the Church Year

By Nancy Ferguson

Why do we have a church year?For many Christians, their lives are ruled by a variety of calendars: the annual calendar that runs from January through December, a school calendar that marks semesters and summer vacations, the agricultural calendar tha...

The Bible is filled with tales of the Christian faithful wandering the desert in search of a home. In this study we explore an extraordinary group of faithful Christians who actually chose a demanding life in the desert as a means of expressing their love for God.

Connecting with Our Desert Fathers and Mothers

By Nancy Ferguson

Starting in the third century-and continuing for another 350 years-many Christian men and women went to live in the hazardous desert environment of the Middle East. These daring Christians came to the deserts of Egypt, Palestine, Arabia, Syria, and m...

Christians grow up hearing stories about heroes in the Bible. Clearly, some of those heroes were heroines! Their rich and varied stories are instructive to the lives of women of faith in contemporary times.

Connecting with Women in the Bible

By Nancy Ferguson

Women appear throughout the Bible, making their own particular mark on biblical history. They are the mothers and grandmothers of kings, followers of Jesus, and companions to apostles. These women provide us with spiritual models that can guide our l...

The Bible inspires us with tales of the earth's creation and as Christians we profess to be grateful for all God's gifts. Yet there exists ample evidence that too often too many of us take many of these gifts for granted. How can we claim to value the spirit of God's creation when we fail to protect it through environmental policy?

Developing a Green Action Plan for Your Congregation

By Nancy Ferguson

The earth's resources are being damaged, diminished, and destroyed. As God's stewards charged to care for the creation, faithful Christians need to determine--individually and corporately--what their responsibilities are for that creation.To that end...

Price:

Christian prayer does not require a perfect vocabulary, full knowledge of the Bible, nor does God require that we first organize our thoughts and write them down before we pray Praying is quite simply a means of connecting with God.

Different Ways to Pray

By Nancy Ferguson

Prayer is the term we use to describe our communication with God. It sounds so simple but many young people approach the practice of prayer with a little anxiety. "Am I doing this right?" "Am I praying for the right things?" "Does God hear me?" This ...

Christians throughout the world share a devotion to God and roots in the biblical tradition but their expressions of faith take many different forms. Understanding how other Christians exhibit their faith can enhance our own faith lives.

Exploring Celtic Christianity

By Nancy Ferguson

The Christian expression of love for God and devotion to faithful living takes many forms throughout the world. This retreat offers participants a brief opportunity to immerse themselves in the richness of Celtic spirituality and, by doing so, to enh...

We all like to think that our Christian faith and practice in the church leads automatically to a spiritual life, but it's not always that simple. Knowing the Bible and following the rules may make us good congregants, but spirituality isn't something we do, it's something we feel.

Exploring Spiritual Practices

By Nancy Ferguson

The topic of spirituality is generating a lot of conversation in both religious and secular circles, yet many Christians are confused about its meaning and its connection to their lives. They want a chance to explore the topic and to ask questions ab...

How can I participate in my church? What does God call us to be? Involving new members in the church can be difficult, but a retreat is a great place to begin.

Identifying and Using Our Spiritual Gifts

The Sabbath is often referred to as a day of rest. Even God, as the Bible states in Genesis, rested on the seventh day. So how is it that contemporary Christians have let that notion of physical and psychological rest get away from us? In this retreat, we'll seek to reclaim the Sabbath.

Learning to Honor Sabbath

By Nancy Ferguson

The goals of this retreat are to learn about the biblical concept of Sabbath and to explore a twenty-first-century concept of keeping Sabbath.Bear in mind that this is not a traditional Bible study about Sabbath but an opportunity to think purposeful...
