The "small groups" are awesome game plan I don't believe I would change anything, just continue to perfect the playbook.
Honestly, you guys did such an amazing job, from preparation to presentation that I wouldn't change a thing about it. The format was dead on...Awesome Job - ! Blessings .
It was real, raw and honest. Away from tv and internet was a blessing. Keep it real and raw and honest. Small Group format was crucial.
I can't think of anyways it could be more impactful to those of us who are checked in. Thank you guys for all, all you do...
Nothing. I have to say that I have been walking with a group of men since last year and we were not all assigned to the same small group. I don't know if it was intentional, but I feel that it was a blessing. We were all able to reach out and connect with other men, and see God moving through my band of brothers through other men was awesome.
The addition of breaking into small groups was a smart move. Getting us to look into our thoughts, our situation/ station in life. It forces us all to get the workbook questions done.
I came to this retreat knowing that there was a God, but with all his blessings, I leave the retreat walking along side of HIM. This weekend was Perfect!!
Nothing you could have done just if I could have been here Friday morning for session #2. Thank you all for being here for us. I now know this was where God wanted me to be so that I could learn how to Heal my relationship with all my daughters. I now have my starting place I can stay in my seat waiting for it to start or as I now see I need to step up and get it started. Thank you for everything for just being here for us.
Note - Small Group break out are essential!!! I haven't read the book - Wild at Heart, so , I missed some of the depth, but I plan to.
I'm sure there is something that could have made the weekend more impactful, but I can't think of any. From what I see and hear, the impact this weekend has been tremendous.
If my father could have come to the event! The small groups really was a great encouragement to me and really was the best part of the trip...
I would like to say thank you to everyone that made this weekend possible. This is something that I needed more than anyone could now. Thank you.
I am not sure it could be impacted more to be honest. The questions is what kind of impact am I going to make as a result of this weekend.
This was my first experience and I am totally satisfied with the outcome and changes received into my life.
I believe it was the right ending on a peaceful time with God and Thanks again.
It was just fine the way it is.
Nothing, stay open to the LORD. Let him speak to you and through you.
The only thing I see that could have made this weekend more impactful is if pills would have been handed out that all the wounds and sent us into a perfect life. This weekend was fantastic, everyone did a great job.
I can't think of anything that should be done differently to improve the weekend. The more people that praying for God to work here the better. I was really lifted up by the prayers of my brothers in my small group. A strong emphasis on asking each other how we can pray for one another and spending time together in prayer for one another with laying on of hands is really important for healing and encouragement. Thank you for being obedient to God in your leadership of this event! God has done some incredible things here!
I have received so many great stories and met so many great men of God that I honestly don't have an idea what would make it any better than I already was if I had to say one thing I guess it would be a little more small group time. It really helped me get allot out into the open. Thanks you for everything camp Gilead has another notch on its belt for a renewed man.
It is hard to say anything that would have made the weekend more impactful. It far exceeded my expectations of a men's retreat. Far better than any other I have attended before.
My desire this weekend was to obtain the bigger picture of why I am here. To know that would have been more impactful for myself. Regarding the team I couldn't have been in a more godly atmosphere and I appreciate the passion and love from the staff.
More time. This was as important as anything I have ever done! I feel released and forgiven and I have done the same for others.
Can't say I could have handled anymore the LORD was good. We covered allot of ground with my heart. You guys in leadership did a great Job. Thank you may God bless you and all your families.
This has been one of the most impacting wild at hearts because in the small groups no one gets left behind it allows for good peer pressure to unfold the lies that the enemy has developed in men's hearts and through other men's stories gives Jesus room to work no temptation has seized you but what is common to man that common thing we as men have it shows in small groups and makes it ok to drop our guard.
This has been the most impactful weekend of my life!
Honestly this was as awesome experience it had everything it could have for me. Thank you for this wonderful experience.
I have no opinions on how to make it more impactful. I think you guys did a great job!
The impact has been so profound that I'm not sure I can answer objectively. Maybe more activities as a whole, things that would build relationships with men in a setting that all of us are vulnerable in. These are true relationship not bravado or how the world says men should be.
I don't know what could be added. However the small group approach is a great addition. It caused me to engage and embrace that may otherwise miss out due to standing on the sidelines allowing the enemy to communicate lies to them rather than truth in Christ.
I can't think of anything that would have made this weekend more impactful. I personally would have liked to have seen a session where there was an open forum on a large group for individuals could come up and tell / reveal their stories.
Nothing would have impacted me more.
If I would have arrived on time.
I'm not sure that there is anything. God choose the paths we take and his impact is the greatest impact. At first I was thinking that live worship would have done it but I found myself in tears during worship, connecting with God. How awesome is HE!
Nothing. The weekend was awesome! Thank you so much!
I enjoyed walking with my brothers in Christ. I'm glad that I wasn't alone at any time. That I could have someone to talk to when the enemy came calling on me. That I could say get behind me satin. Because I walk with the LORD.
It was perfect for me.
I don't know what else I would change because I felt it was really open with no like manufactured experience. I really liked the way everything was arranged.
I don't know if there is much more that could of been done. You guys are Christ warriors and I am proud to be among you and here I want to keep on sharing this weekend and encouraging others to come next time to try to get more non believers to try to come to see men who love God and worship God. To stand together to know we are all in a boat and if one falls anyone of us is ready to toss the life line to save. Would you leave the ninety nine to save one. I was impacted I have ten full pages of information and I went to use and further Gods kingdom I love all you men! Thank you who made this possible. I felt bad was to proud and was not going to come. But thank you..
I think you did an amazing job and can't really suggest anything better. The whole format of this event was fabulous. Thank You!!!
I truly valued the changes that was made this year, I believe you men did what God asked you to do and for that God will be honored and Glorified. Your brother in Christ Always.
