CANCELLED – Gift of Wonder Workshop

Are you ready for Easter? Are you ready to celebrate as Jesus asks us to… like a child? Jesus told his disciples that to enter the kingdom of God they needed to become like children yet there is rarely anything childlike about our faith. We suffer from play deprivation, nature deficit disorder, awe deletion and compassion fatigue and as a result we are God deprived too.

In this workshop, based on my recent book The Gift of Wonder,  I invite you to reawaken your inner child and rediscover the childlike characteristics Jesus tells us are necessary to enter the new creation ushered in by Jesus resurrection. These reconnect us to our passionate God who delights in life, celebrates with joy and exudes a sense of awe and wonder. This interactive process will have us remembering our childhood stories, doodling for fun, painting on rocks and and relearning the awe and wonder of nature walks, joyspot sightings and compassion games, exercises that enable us to delight in God in new and creative ways. There will be time for reflection and interaction but also come prepared to get creative and have fun.
