The women of the <a href=\"https:\/\/browardchurch.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Broward church<\/a> (part of the South Florida Church of Christ) retreated to an oceanfront hotel in Melbourne, Florida, enjoying a weekend of fellowship with God and one another.  Lessons and classes focused on <i>El Roi <\/i> (the God who sees), <i>Adonai <\/i> (the Lord<i>), Jehovah Rapha <\/i>(God who heals) and <i>Yahweh<\/i>, which is the ultimate statement of self-sufficiency, \u201cI AM.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breakout classes designed to address women\u2019s concerns at different life-stages were taught by a diverse team of multi-generational disciples. From the sunrise beach devotional co-led by a 26-year-old and a grandmother, to the poignant personal testimony of an 82-year-old great-grandmother, all the messages resonated with honest accounts of what it means to have a real relationship with God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ToKnowHimBynameretreatstaffphoto.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retreat fellowship ranks in a class by itself, and the weekend program made space for girlfriends\u2019 hang time as well as new friend connections.
