About This Item
Description: Are you in need of a transformative and soul-refreshing experience? Look no further than the Invitation to Retreat: The Gift and Necessity of Time Away with God. This hardcover book, published on September 18, 2018, is your ultimate guide to planning a meaningful and impactful retreat. Authored by renowned spiritual leader Ruth Haley Barton, this book offers a profound insight into the importance of retreating into solitude and silence in order to deepen your relationship with God. Barton poignantly reminds us that attending church, hearing about God, and even studying theological concepts may not necessarily mean we truly know Him.
By taking intentional breaks from our busy lives, we create the space to be with the One who loved us first and cultivate a genuine connection with God. Invitation to Retreat addresses both the practical and existential aspects of retreating. It not only provides guidance on how to design and plan retreats but also delves into the profound reasons why we should embrace this practice. Barton understands the weariness that many Christians face and acknowledges the desperate need for rest.
She offers practical strategies for strategic withdrawal and a variety of retreat themes and activities. The book also features valuable reflections from individuals who have experienced the power of retreat firsthand. From spiritual leaders to retreat participants, their voices attest to the life-changing impact of taking time away with God. Through their stories, you will discover the potential for personal growth, spiritual renewal, and the ability to bless others with the lessons learned during your retreat. Whether you are a pastor, a leader, or simply someone in search of a deeper connection with God, Invitation to Retreat has something for everyone.
It is a comprehensive resource that provides not only inspiration and motivation but also practical tools for planning a successful retreat. Let Ruth Haley Barton be your guide as you embark on a journey of self-discovery, spiritual growth, and true rest.

Spiritual Growth Editorial Review
** Invitation to Retreat: The Gift and Necessity of Time Away with God** Ruth Haley Barton's "Invitation to Retreat" serves as an insightful and practical guide for anyone looking to deepen their relationship with God through intentional time away. With a clear structure that encompasses twelve chapters, the book offers profound reflections on a major theme: retreating to connect with the divine. Barton brilliantly presents seven key invitations from God that guide readers through their personal retreat journey—each powerful enough to inspire both seasoned retreatants and newcomers alike. Readers praise Barton for her relatable writing style, filled with real-life examples and practical suggestions that make the concept of retreat accessible. The end of each chapter features actionable tips for practicing retreat, ensuring that the guidance is not just theoretical but applicable to everyday lives. Especially noteworthy is the author’s warmth; she speaks from personal experience, admitting her own struggles with the notion of retreating. This empathetic approach makes the reader feel encouraged rather than judged, creating an inviting atmosphere that resonates deeply. Moreover, Barton’s reflections on the importance of taking time for renewal resonate strongly in today’s fast-paced world, providing a vital pastoral resource for those leading others in retreat. The inclusion of poetry, prayers, and additional resources like a suggested retreat schedule further enriches the reader's journey. In capturing the essence of what it means to step away from the chaos and engage in spiritual reflection, "Invitation to Retreat" is more than just a guide; it’s a heartfelt call to embrace God's invitation to rest and reconnect.
