Seated, Surrendered, and Sent Retreat with Heather Holleman
What could life look like if God renewed our identity in Christ, helped us live surrendered lives, and refreshed our purpose? Join Heather Holleman for three sessions that reorient our hearts and connect us again to Jesus. The “Seated with Christ” session invites women to take their seat at the greatest table with the Greatest King to heal from jealousy, comparison, and striving to now live available, surrendered lives. “Surrendered” encourages women to know the Lord deeply in way that encourages their full consecration to Him to prepare them for “Living a Sent Life”—the final session that unites women to a supernatural adventure with Jesus by giving them the mindsets and tools to live a life that invites others to Jesus. Each 40 minute session concludes with optional times for reflection with audience notes and discussion questions.
Session Descriptions:
Seated – What could life look like if we stopped fighting for a seat at the table and instead took our seat at the greatest table with the Greatest King? Join Heather Holleman for a deep dive into Ephesians 2:6 where we learn that God “raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.” Instead of fighting for a seat through appearance, affluence, and achievement, Heather teaches women how to adore, access, and abide to live lives of freedom, peace, and joy in Jesus.
Surrendered – Heather invites participants to “offer their bodies as a living sacrifice” (Romans 12) by learning the foundational truths that allow us to surrender fully to God. Women learn of God’s guarding care through key scriptural images and passages, and they ask the 4 Hard but Great Questions that position the heart for surrender.
Sent: Living a Life that Invites Others to Jesus – Learn the mindsets, goals, and vision for living a “sent” life. You’ll leave refreshed and renewed in your vision for evangelism.
Sent: Living a Life that Invites Others to Jesus – What if your neighborhood, workplace, school, and favorite places to spend time, whether the gym or the grocery store, became spaces where you regularly walked with Jesus into people’s lives and saw God use you in powerful ways to help draw them to Himself? It can happen! Learn the mindsets, goals, and vision for living a “sent” life. You’ll leave refreshed and renewed in your vision for connecting others to Jesus.
