The Beatitudes: Who are you? What do you love? How do you live?
As we have walked through the book of Romans on Sunday mornings, we have been confronted with one question over and over: How does this change us in ways that matter?
In the beginning of his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus answers that very question with the Beatitudes. This is not an idealistic checklist of aspirational, but ultimately unattainable, traits. Instead, it gets at the heart of how we relate to God, to ourselves, and to one another as we live out our daily lives.
Come retreat with us in the mountains April 10-12 as we study our Savior’s answer to that question and learn how to apply it to our own lives and stories, worship, and connect with one another.
Never been on our retreat before? Here is what to expect:
- Biblical teaching from North Wake members
- A full worship team leading uninterrupted times of worship
- Built in time for you to be alone for personal study and reflection
- Unstructured free time Saturday afternoon to spend any way you wish: shopping, hiking, reading, napping, etc…

Women’s Retreat 2025 (April 25-27)
Fervent in Love: Life Together
“Love one another fervently from the heart.” 1 Peter 1:22 — Last year, we slowed down to meditate on God’s Word and calm our inner noise. This year, we will focus on quieting the outer noise that distracts us from our relationships with our community of believers. How do we as members of one body truly love and cherish one another? Join us in the mountains as we unpack what it means to love each other fervently as we do life in community together.
Friday, April 25th – “Ordinary Fervency” (Mindy Williams)
Saturday, April 26th – “Let Us Hold Fast…to Each Other and Our Travel Mugs” (Mary Kathryn Lassetter)
Saturday, April 26th – “Approaching Community as a Sojourner” (Marian Merkle)
Sunday, April 27th – “Brave Together” (Jett Wrenn)

Walking Through Suffering: Living in Hope
January 20, 2024 – Ad Miles
Where is hope in the middle of dark days? Does it shrink into the shadows or come out in full force? Where do you encounter despair? In the wee hours of the night when no one is around to distract you from your thoughts? Hope and despair both try to flourish in the face of unknown outcomes. Despair tempts us to give up, while hope prompts us to keep living the abundant life Jesus promised us in John 10:10. We must learn to live in hope!
Grieving with Hope
