A Retreat With Job and Julian of Norwich

Your directors for this retreat,Trusting That All Will Be Well, are the sufferer whose story is told in the biblical book that bears his name, Job, and the medieval mystic, Julian of Norwich. Complaining Job and serene Julian have something important in common: an abiding trust in God's willingness to hear human cries. In the course of this retreat, they will encourage you to acknowledge the depth of your pain, to test the reasons conventional wisdom offers for human suffering, to rethink your concepts of God and God's ways, to plumb the reality of human brokenness, and to let compassion grow from your scars.
