Brave Hearted Ministry Summer Retreat Session One — Arrive Preparing Your Heart “Come close to God, and God will come close to you.” — James 4:8 (NLT) Hello Brave Hearted Steppers, Retreat Moment Before you begin this session, take a deep breath. Slow down. Release the noise of the day. Ask the Holy Spirit to settle your heart. This is not just another reading or study. This is a divine appointment with your Heavenly Father.

He was the one God called to prepare the way. And although he was in the wilderness and ended up being killed. He successfully led people to Christ. John started a sacrament that would be followed by all believers for decades. A sacrament that would one day change the whole world.  “Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?” He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.” And they asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.” Then they said to him, “Who are you, that we may give ...
