Have you ever been to an event that changed your life forever? Perhaps it was a conference, workshop, service, or even a worship concert that left you speechless. It was as if God ordered your steps to that exact place at that exact time to give you precisely what you needed. You left changed, encouraged, and inspired and your heart's expression was,
"That was God!"
If you said yes, then you understand the excitement behind Dare to Obey, the annual retreat of DayBreak Women. If you said no, God's about to blow your mind.
Women from all walks of life gather for a life-changing experience. Each year, tucked away in nature, we remove the hectic schedule of life and intently seek after God.
Our goal is to come away with what we need in this season to obey the Lord in all areas of our lives.
The 2024 theme is REIMAGINE!
To Reimagine is to Imagine Again.
To Think Again
To Look Again
To Dream Again
To Hope Again
Anytime God calls you to do something again, it's because there's something you've missed; something you've lost sight of. I believe that God is calling us to see our lives and our futures from His perspective--to take Him out of the box and remove the limits we've consciously and subconsciously placed on Him and ourselves.
This is going to be good!
