Ready for Peace in Times of Turmoil?

Do you ever wonder how authentic you are? Are you living out the real you at home in your relationships with your family? Are you the same you at work? Who are you in the community or with friends, or in your church?

When circumstances oppose who we truly are and what we believe in, it often requires courage to take a stand. We each have fears that hold us back from being fully who we were created to be. We may fear that if we disappoint someone by not performing up to their standard or by not loving them well, we will lose their respect or love. Some fear that if they are truly known, others will discover they have a fatal flaw that will lead to rejection.

Our leader for the weekend, Jeff McIntosh, is a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. Jeff began providing professional Christian counseling services in Pleasanton in 1997. A graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary (School of Psychology) Jeff’s background includes experience in both ministry and clinical settings. Among Jeff’s current specialized areas of interest are men’s issues, spiritual healing, sexuality, recovery from sexual abuse, and addiction. Jeff’s passion is helping people experience the fullness of the grace and truth of Christ in their lives and relationships, so they can freely love God, themselves and others.

We will be at Westminster Retreat Center in Alamo where there is privacy to talk in small groups about the turmoil that life is laying on you. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn to live with peace in your life at work, at home, and in your community.
