If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame and are being asked how he was healed, then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.

Acts 4:14-20
But since they could see the man who had been healed standing there with them, there was nothing they could say. So they ordered them to withdraw from the Sanhedrin and then conferred together. “What are we going to do with these men?” they asked. “Everyone living in Jerusalem knows they have performed a notable sign, and we cannot deny it. But to stop this thing from spreading any further among the people, we must warn them to speak no longer to anyone in this name.” Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John replied, “Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to him? You be the judges! As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.”

The Lord has been using the wilderness for thousands of years as a place of accelerated growth and mentoring. Leaders are equipped and transition from where they are to where God is calling them. In this time of refining preparation, there are traits and experiences that need to be instilled in us before we can lead well.
Many Biblical leaders spent formative time in the wilderness, resulting in a greater understanding of their Identity, Mission, and Source. Begin your journey August 12-20th 2022 on a ten-day trip in the wilds of "The Winds Wilderness Area".
