Overview of this Retreat
Music is powerful. A single song can evoke emotion, memories and even change our mood. Scripture contains a book of songs (called Psalms) that have done just that for thousands of years. This retreat will look at the power of music as well as the honest prayer given to us in the Psalms. Each session will be built around a different genre of music and will focus on a different Psalm. Through each session, the teens will be challenged to enter into honest, intimate prayer with their Creator and Savior.
