Kent Major is the President of Alpheus Communications, a telecom and data center company with about 100 employees. He and his wife, Caroline, are a part of Grace Family Baptist Church and together they attended the most recent Faithwalking retreat. Here is his testimony about his experience.
The Faithwalking retreat was an amazing experience. I’ve been blessed to attend numerous Christian conferences and be exposed to much good, biblical teaching over the years, but never have I been part of a group that was invited to look so deeply into the condition of our own hearts and to consider -- in an intimate setting -- what might be holding us back from becoming more radically obedient disciples of Jesus.
It will be some time before I can evaluate the long-term fruit of the retreat, but I have high hopes. With the concepts, tools, and follow-up that Faithwalking provides, I’m left with no excuse for not engaging in the “heart” work that will result in a greater capacity to love and serve both God and my fellow man. The facilitators are not just good at running retreats but are top-notch folks who are committed to living out what they’re teaching; I was challenged by the radical decisions they’ve made in their own personal lives.
