Men's Retreat
Camp Wooten
March 28 - 30, 2008

This year’s theme is Living with Skill in a Dangerous World. By "dangerous" we mean that the cost of foolishness per "cubic second" can be very high. In a moment of foolishness, a man can destroy his life, lose his marriage, alienate his children, or lose his job by the careless use of his words.
Drawn by foolish desires for instant material gain, a man's identity can be stolen and his assets severely compromised by a person on another continent he has never even met (Proverbs 20:21). We are baited with sex outside of marriage in vivid high speed, high definition color and then charge after it like an ox going to the slaughter -- little knowing it will cost us our lives (Proverbs 7:22-23).
The rapid rate at which temptation stalks us requires that we men, and our sons, have the wisdom required to survive the intensity of "necessary" temptations to avoid the minefields of unnecessary temptations and experience glorious victory. This is what God gives us in this book of Proverbs, wisdom of godly living in all these areas and more. For this reason we are covering many fronts during this retreat, knowing that our enemy has his sights on us in the many venues in which we live. Come and expect to be equipped through God's wisdom to be better victors of life and a blessing to our wives, children, church and friends!
