Step Four weekend: 8th - 10th March 2019
Picture
The latest Step Four weekend was held at Cratfield from 8th - 10th March 2019. This course completes the quartet of 'Steps'. During the weekend we considered what our emotional 'stance' is, that is our instinctive response to people and situations, and how that stance was formed during our early years. We then discovered how we can change our stance by examining how our introvert temperament views our extrovert and adjusting that view where necessary. John introduced the concepts of how to bring the introvert to maturity, where that hadn't happened in childhood, and grow in confidence thus enabling it to become our 'loving leader'.

​The majority of people who attended the course have journeyed together through Steps One to Three, with those joining part-way through being warmly welcomed. It is a caring and supportive group with high levels of trust and openness - and a genuine enjoyment of each other's company.

The comments below, which were received following the weekend, give a flavour of people's response to the course:

  • Which part of the course did you find most enjoyable? 'Difficult to say because all of it is enjoyable, the learning, the application, the fellowship and food.'
  • 'This has been life-changing and I feel my journey has only just begun. I really look forward to Step Five and also re-doing earlier steps.'
  • 'This is not a course. This is a wonderful understanding of what God has for the full depth and breadth of our lives - and encouragement and support to live it in freedom.'
  • Where do you think we could improve? 'I can't think of improvements. The balance between talks, informal engagement and rests is well planned.'
  • 'Life changing, eye opening and so many times of reassurance!'
  • How interesting did you find the course? 'I got more out of this course than any other.'
  • 'I found the whole weekend a very enjoyable place to be. From teaching to fellowship, to food, to accommodation, to sharing, to learning. Thank you so much everyone for the tools and opportunity for me to find out who God has called me to be.'
