About the Resource

We are all created for deep intimacy with God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Like any relationship, intimacy takes time to develop and grow. Using Genesis 1-3, this session will create space for listening as we seek to hear God’s voice and put it into practice.

*This was an “encounter” session, designed to be more experiential in nature.
