What is a Soft Heart Getaway?
Women are nurturers, but in our zeal to keep the universe in tact, we often neglect our personal needs.
“Don’t burn out; keep yourself fueled and aflame.” Romans 12:11
Warning: a pot pushed to the back burner will burn dry if left unattended.
With Roman 12:11 in mind, Teresa Gross and Joni Reese launched Soft Heart Getaways in 2008 to give women of faith a way to rest and relax, recharge their spirits, and rejoice in the sisterhood of women.
Soft Heart Getaways are held at Mountain View Lodge, a vacation home near the hill country hamlet of Barksdale, Texas. Enrollment is limited to 10 guests per Getaway, giving each gathering a cozy, slumber-party feel.
“Be inventive in hospitality.” Romans 12:13b
In addition to the group Bible study plus time for personal reflection, each Getaway includes daily praise and worship, free time for rest and recreation, and lots of laughter therapy. All meals are prepared on-site and served family style in the upstairs dining room with a gorgeous view of Pulliam Creek.
This year’s Bible study topic is “The Woman in the Mirror: Be Ready to Meet her Face-to-Faith.” Debbie King of Andrews will lead Bible studies for Getaways 1 and 2, and Joni Reese, author of the study, will lead the rest.
