Power has several prizes
Handcuffs can come in all sizes
Love has a million disguises
But winning is simply not one.
—Jon Guerra
In a world that prizes influence and power, Christians are often tempted to measure faithfulness by success rather than by love. We are urged to scale our ambitions, maximize our impact, and expect abundance without cost. But the gospel tells a different story. In this retreat, Sho Baraka and David Nienhuis will invite us to consider how we might cultivate lives defined not by winning, but by sacrificial love.
