Feeling burnout? We can help at Montreat!

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” -Matthew 11:28 Our culture values hard work over rest. Burnout is rampant. Our jobs, obligations, and churches often expect us to work relentlessly. Hard work is good, but it is not the goal. We often preach about the importance of Sabbath, but how often do we take our own advice? What we need is to take time to breathe, to engage our senses, to use neglected literal and figurative muscles so that we might discover the renewal Sabbath offers.
Register today!
New art track! - Find renewal through creation with this new track designed for those who love art and the outdoors. Participants will spend their time sketching en plein air and exploring Montreat. Beginners are welcome!

Time for contemplation - Each day will begin with a devotion led by Brian McLaren and a challenge to use your chosen activity to find peace and renewal. Then, spend time reflecting on how to bring this back to your daily life.
