SUMMARY:LISTENING RETREAT: Summer 2024
DESCRIPTION:This carefully curated weekend of rest includes times alone and times together\, designed to give you the space to slow down and the structure to process the rapidly moving pieces of your life. The primary goal of our Listening Retreats is to help you discern God’s voice above all other voices in your life\, empowering you to confidently move forward in your calling. \nJust as the flourishing of a tree is dependent upon the health of its roots and soil\, so too are work and spirituality interconnected and interdependent. Spirituality is the root system from which our work arises. Our hope for each retreat experience is that your inner spirit might be expanded with new hope\, reviving your work with love. \nWEEKEND SCHEDULE:\n\nFriday July 19\, 6:30-9:30p: Communal Welcome Dinner\, check-in available anytime after 4pm.\nSaturday July 20: Entire Sabbath day as structured by you with recommended guidance provided.\nSunday July 21: Morning Listening and Stillness\, Depart midday.\n\nCOST: $375 per person* / $500 married couples*\nREGISTRATION: Due to the limited space available and uniqueness of lodging arrangements\, please email us to confirm your spot.\n*Your retreat registration includes two breakfasts\, two lunches\, and two dinners\, plenteous beverages and snacks\, and all retreat materials. Additional costs for those staying offsite at an Airbnb (we have 2 nearby homes on hold that can be shared) or local hotel (book your own room at the Doubletree by Hilton Lancaster). \nGetting there: Lancaster (LNC) is accessible either by car or by train via Amtrak from NY Penn Station (NYP) or Newark International Airport (EWR). The retreat venue is approx. 20 min drive from the Lancaster Train Station. Ubers are available. Feel free to email us for any transportation assistance. \nThis is our regular location for Goldenwood’s Summer Listening Retreats; we will provide you with guided recommendations to help you craft a weekend of stillness and quiet.

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: The Calling of Hope
DESCRIPTION:We have a God who is familiar with darkness. Imagine\, before the divine fiat\, “Let there be light\,” God was in the darkness of what was formless and empty. Perhaps the Bible starts off this way because God wants His people to know that He is no stranger to the darkness found in this world. He wants us to know that He speaks into that darkness to create light and life. What a profound hope Genesis 1 would have been for God’s people in exile–to know that their God is no stranger to darkness and is able to create beauty and wonder out of it. \nThe journey of hope begins with the experience of darkness that we all face living in a broken world and the recognition that things are not the way they are supposed to be. What we do next is critical because it reflects whose voice we believe. Hope is a calling as much as our work is a calling. But for many of us\, this active sense of hope is a foreign concept. In fact\, at best\, hope operates more like wishful thinking than an act of trust and obedience. From a biblical perspective\, hope arises from hearing the substance and tone of God’s voice exhorting us to listen to Him more than we listen to others. \n\n\n\nThroughout the two-week experience\, you will be introduced to a variety of prayer forms\, learning to walk conversationally with God\, recognizing His voice in your life.  Trellis will guide you to integrate life-giving spiritual practices into everyday rhythms\, transforming and renewing our sense of calling.  Enter into this season with a new structure that provides the space and a community for hearing God’s voice and knowing who He reveals Himself to be in the midst of your everyday routines\, leading to holistic vitality. \nThe TRELLIS structure includes: \n\n1 Intro Session: Sun Jun 9\, 7:45-9p EST. (Online experience for theological introduction and time in listening quads. Recorded for those who cannot join live.)\n6 Communal Guided Listening Sessions: every Mon\, Wed\, and Fri 12:20-12:45p EST\, during the weeks of Jun 10 and Jun 17. (Attend live or listen to the 25-min recordings at personal set times.)\nDaily Scripture Meditation and Exercise Pages: Individually in your Listening Book. (Participants are provided with a digital PDF or can order their own physical copy online via Amazon.)\n\nThe communal listening rhythms of TRELLIS are intentionally designed as intrusions into your regular daily routines and\, therefore can be entered into from wherever you are. For more about TRELLIS… \n——————————— \n“If a vine doesn’t have a trellis\, it will die. And if your life with Jesus doesn’t have some kind of structure to facilitate health and growth\, it will wither away…The point of a trellis isn’t to make the vines stand up straight in neat rows\, but rather to attain a rich\, deep glass of wine.” \n— John Mark Comer\, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry

SUMMARY:Annual Fallow Retreat | Cambridge\, UK
DESCRIPTION:What is a Fallow Retreat?\nThe essence of a fallow retreat lies in embracing the inherent value of rest and recognizing that seasons of non-productivity can be essential for long-term growth and sustainability. Inspired by the agricultural practice of allowing land to lie fallow and rest\, our hope is for you to experience a deep sense of replenishment\, inspiration\, and reawakening\, ultimately leading to greater productivity\, creativity\, and spiritual vitality in the seasons to come. \nGoldenwood is committed to creating this space and time annually to remember what we’ve forgotten about who we are\, what we’ve been created for\, and who we are becoming. \nWhy Fallow?\n\nFor the “over”worked (those who find themselves in seasons of great responsibility and limited margin): fallowing increases your capacity towards greater fruitfulness.\nFor the “under”worked (those in seasons of transition\, underemployment\, or retirement): fallowing opens up space for the soil to be tilled\, for new seeds to be planted for future realities yet to be seen.\n\n  \nTHIS RETREAT IS CURRENTLY FULL. \nTo Sign-up for the Waitlist\, please email info@goldenwoodnyc.org.

SUMMARY:NAUTILUS: Applications open through June 15
DESCRIPTION:How you imagine the future unavoidably affects how you work and live in the day to day.  And our imagination is shaped by the voices we hear. What voices do you listen to?  What future do you see coming–one fashioned by fear or imbued with hope?  We need to hear the voice of God breaking into our day to day\, cultivating in us a hope that propels the work we do now. \nNautilus is the capstone program of the Theology & Spiritual Formation Stream in the forthcoming Goldenwood Institute.  This unique 7-month journey is designed to develop the foundational daily\, weekly\, monthly\, and quarterly rhythms necessary for navigating our complex world.  It combines theology\, listening practices\, spiritual direction\, and communal discernment to develop a holistic vision for your life.  By re-examining God\, self\, others\, and work\, Nautilus provides a transformative journey towards renewed spiritual vitality applicable to all aspects of life. \nAccepting applications now through June 15th from participants nation-wide.

SUMMARY:2024 Dream Forum: Applications Open through Apr 30!
DESCRIPTION:We take seriously the reality that we have a God who speaks to us\, and who gives us dreams of His Kingdom so that we might cultivate this world in ways that reflect His character and embody His glory. And we have seen first-hand the power of a community that shares this common vision and passionately collaborates toward that end\, enlivened by the Spirit—the very breath of God. We are bringing people together to cultivate their ideas in a community that seeks the Spirit’s renewing power to turn dreams into reality. \nThe Dream Forum invites and encourages people to bring forth their ideas\, their dreams\, their visions. Through a process of curation by both qualified experts and the community as a whole\, 8-12 individual Dreamers will be selected to form four-person “Dream Pods”\, together receiving access to potential funding\, as well as connections and resources to spur one another on and move from idea to the appropriate subsequent stage of development over the course of a communal 6-month journey. \nAnd while the creation of the next world-shaping venture or thriving non-profit may be an outworking of this\, it is not our primary goal. Rather\, our hope is to encourage listening—listening to the Spirit of God\, in community\, as He invites us to take up the calling we’ve received—a calling to reimagine and remake our world with love. \nFor details about the Dream Forum and to apply…

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: New Vision for Work
DESCRIPTION:Too often\, we myopically reduce the concept of calling to career choices\, but doing so assumes that God speaks to us with regard only to our work rather than speaking into the whole of our lives\, with work as one part. It is this layering within the larger context that can help us more clearly discern God’s direction for our work. \nThis Trellis draws from Makoto Fujimura’s book\, Art + Faith. The title might mistakenly lead some to believe that this book is written primarily for the artist or art enthusiast. To make this conclusion\, however\, would keep many from reading what we believe is one of the most important faith and work books written to date. Fujimura addresses a critically under-represented perspective and ethos of the faith and work movement through his interjection of a “theology of making”. Drawing from rich biblical and theological streams\, Fujimura helps us see a distinctive alternative that challenges the pragmatism overwhelmingly characterizing our approach to work today. \nThroughout the two-week experience\, you will be introduced to a variety of prayer forms\, learning to walk conversationally with God\, recognizing His voice in your life.  Trellis will guide you to integrate life-giving spiritual practices into everyday rhythms\, transforming and renewing our sense of calling.  Enter into this season with a new structure that provides the space and a community for hearing God’s voice and knowing who He reveals Himself to be in the midst of your everyday routines\, leading to holistic vitality. \nThe TRELLIS structure includes: \n\n1 Intro Session: Sun Mar 3\, 7:30-9p EST. (Online experience for theological introduction and time in listening quads. Recorded for those who cannot join live.)\n6 Communal Guided Listening Sessions: every Mon\, Wed\, and Fri 12:20-12:45p EST\, during the weeks of Mar 4 and Mar 11. (Attend live or listen to the 25-min recordings at personal set times.)\nDaily Scripture Meditation and Exercise Pages: Individually in your Listening Book. (Participants are provided with a digital PDF or can order their own physical copy online via Amazon.)\n\nThe communal listening rhythms of TRELLIS are intentionally designed as intrusions into your regular daily routines and\, therefore can be entered into from wherever you are. For more about TRELLIS… \n——————————— \n“If a vine doesn’t have a trellis\, it will die. And if your life with Jesus doesn’t have some kind of structure to facilitate health and growth\, it will wither away…The point of a trellis isn’t to make the vines stand up straight in neat rows\, but rather to attain a rich\, deep glass of wine.” \n— John Mark Comer\, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry \n

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: Loving Others

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: Knowing Yourself
DESCRIPTION:Who am I? We seldom make time to unpack this short but critical question that affects everything we do. Our identity is found not simply by looking within ourselves but by understanding the voices in our lives—from both the past and the present—that have shaped who we are\, and continue to do so! As relational beings\, the voices that resonate most deeply in our lives are the ones forming our identity. Yet we go about our daily lives unaware of the voices we have allowed to distort our self-perception and minimize the wonder of being fashioned in the image of a Triune God. \nThroughout the two-week experience\, you will be introduced to a variety of prayer forms\, learning to walk conversationally with God\, recognizing His voice in your life.  Trellis will guide you to integrate life-giving spiritual practices into everyday rhythms\, transforming and renewing our sense of calling.  Enter into this season with a new structure that provides the space and a community for hearing God’s voice and knowing who He reveals Himself to be in the midst of your everyday routines\, leading to holistic vitality. \nThe TRELLIS structure includes: \n\n1 Intro Session: Sun Dec 3\, 7:30-9p EST. (Online experience for theological introduction and time in listening quads. Recorded for those who cannot join live.)\n6 Communal Guided Listening Sessions: every Mon\, Wed\, and Fri 12:20-12:45p EST\, during the weeks of Dec 4 and Dec 11. (Attend live or listen to the 25-min recordings at personal set times.)\nDaily Scripture Meditation and Exercise Pages: Individually in your Listening Book. (Participants are provided with a digital PDF or can order their own physical copy online via Amazon.)\n\nThe communal listening rhythms of TRELLIS are intentionally designed as intrusions into your regular daily routines and\, therefore can be entered into from wherever you are. For more about TRELLIS… \n——————————— \n“If a vine doesn’t have a trellis\, it will die. And if your life with Jesus doesn’t have some kind of structure to facilitate health and growth\, it will wither away…The point of a trellis isn’t to make the vines stand up straight in neat rows\, but rather to attain a rich\, deep glass of wine.” \n— John Mark Comer\, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry \n

SUMMARY:DREAM FORUM | Round 3 (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:NOVEMBER IS DREAMER MONTH! \nFor the past six months\, our twelve Dreamers have been guided on a journey of slowing down to discern God’s voice calling new things forth\, provided with practical resources and connections\, and supported by individual guidance from our Cultivation Committee. \nNow it’s time to bring YOUR skills\, connections\, and resources into this communal process of dream cultivation and play your part in taking up the calling we’ve received—a calling to reimagine and remake our world with love. \nWe’re extending this year’s Dream Forum across three nights\, highlighting four Dreamers each week\, to create more space for honoring these incredible Dreamers and nurturing generative connections. Together\, in Spirit-led community\, we can cultivate new vision to help bring beauty\, justice\, and restoration to our world. \nJoin us for our final Dream Forum round online AND in-person in NYC and let’s dream together! \nMore about Goldenwood’s Dream Forum…  \n  \nRSVP & COME DREAM WITH US!\n*If you’re planning to join us in-person in midtown Manhattan\, consider coming early for our monthly After-Work! Details here… \n  \nROUND 3 (NOV 16\, 7:30p EST)\n \n  \nDaniel Chun (NYC) | Reimagining Real Estate \nFrom hosting friends in your home to having a meeting place for worship\, I believe real estate is the lifeblood of human growth and community. Real estate can be leveraged in many ways and my dream is to help individuals and organizations reimagine the role it can play in their lives. At its essence\, developing a property is a value creation process that nets profit in both the short and longterm. What I see God wanting to do is to point this value-creation machine towards purpose-driven endeavors that both make a profit (though maybe less) AND have kingdom purpose in terms of how real estate is developed and used. \nRead about Dan’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Learning to Follow. \n  \n  \n \n  \nGrace Swee (NYC) | Eradicating Homelessness as Communal Endeavor \nI dream of a city where homelessness is a thing of the past\, where poverty is eradicated\, and where human beings aren’t struggling to survive but dream. I hope to form a core group of believers from different churches who have the heart to address homelessness and poverty in the city. I see this group (of friends) as a coalition of representatives to unite churches in NYC towards greater compassion\, and long-term solutions. It would also function as an outpost to gather and disseminate collective resources within the body. \nRead about Grace’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Dreaming with God. \n  \n  \n  \n \n  \nCarney R. Burns Jr. (New Rochelle\, NY) | Professional Sales Training for Marginalized Communities \nHaving raised a family of five children (four college graduates so far) over a 30-year career as a sales professional\, I have experienced the power of a career in professional business-to-business sales. In my volunteer activities in prison re-entry ministries\, I encountered people with the innate talent to be successful salespeople\, but they were unaware of the career path to seize the opportunity. This discrepancy led me to start Faith Professional Sales Institute (FPSI) to train marginalized populations in the principles of professional selling as a way to develop successful\, family-building careers. \nRead about Carney’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Waiting for the Ripening. \n  \n  \n \n  \nEllen Choi (Queens\, NY) | Dignifying Workplaces & Producing Plant-Based Food \nThe conception of my dream began with a question: how can survivors of complex trauma be affirmed and dignified in everyday life? By bringing human-centric design and trauma-informed practices to industrial workplaces\, I aim to create manufacturing plants that take good care of people and the environment. To that end\, I hope to found a product line of plant-based food and become a Certified B-Corp. My vision is to begin in South Korea to establish an economically and geographically logical anchor\, then expand to emerging markets and underserved communities in the Asia-Pacific region.

My dream is that my jewelry would send a message of empowerment as its boldness serves as a reminder of the strength and beauty of the wearer\, while simultaneously shedding light on this dark reality in the city of Athens with a portion of the proceeds supporting these women financially through Nea Zoi\, a non-profit organization that I work with. \nRead about Mary’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Freed\, Surprised\, Empowered. \n  \n  \nMeet Karen and Cyrena (Mountain View\, CA) | Her Life Ally \nOur dream is to help women overcome traumas and major transitions which knock them out of living in full purpose and flourishing. Our tools are (i) a new paradigm for allying women that takes into account trauma and healing (ii) technology to help them unlock community resources and hyper-local expertise. \nRead about Karen’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, An Invitation Into Adventure. \nRead about Cyrena’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Leaning Into God. \n  \n  \n  \n  \nMeet Christine Evans (Chicago\, IL) | Shared Roots Mediation \nI dream of providing a safe and welcoming space for survivors of sexual harm to seek healing\, accountability\, and support outside of the legal system. In this space\, their voices and stories are important and prioritized. Starting as a conflict resolution practice rooted in the principles of restorative and transformative justice\, this space would center survivors\, allowing them to determine what they need individually to heal and grow\, while also lifting up the humanity and dignity of all persons involved in the harm. Once this practice has been established\, I dream of bringing on partners and expanding the work to include education and training\, community circles\, mindfulness\, as well as other modalities of growth and healing for all persons and communities impacted by sexual harm. \nRead about Christine’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, A Freight Train Fueled by Uncertainty.

I dreamed of a faith-centered community that holistically invested in the lives of black women who lead. I envisioned a community of black female leaders where they are affirmed\, they reclaim the true narrative of who they are\, hold space for their soul care\, are encouraged and celebrated especially because many are the “only” in their areas of leadership and influence. \nRead about Charlotte’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, The Paradox of Leadership. \n  \n  \n \n  \nMeet Andy Peterson (Nashville\, TN) | The Justice Film Festival \nThe Justice Film Festival has existed for 10 years as a glorified side hustle on a shoestring budget with limited support and infrastructure. Since 2012\, JFF has been dedicated to creating a platform for redemptive stories of marginalized people and ecosystems bravely overcoming challenges and bringing hope\, compassion\, and light to a world in need of inspiration. My dream is to turn it into a bona fide organization with a base of financial support and a team of allies devoted to insuring its long term future and success. \nRead about Andy’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, The Practice of Dreams. \n  \n  \n \nMeet Liliia Chernytska (Chicago\, IL) | A Healing Center for Ukraine \nI dream about a healing center in Ukraine where people receive help independent of their social-economic status and where individuals can find healing and hope. I hope to not only make mental health care approachable but also invite churches to participate in care for underserved populations. I dream of helping to equip people and organizations with the crucial knowledge and skills necessary for working with wounded hearts. I came to study psychotherapy and trauma therapy in the United States with the hope of bringing this knowledge back to my homeland—even before a full-scale war broke out. Now the need for soul healing has become even more acute\, and I can’t wait to get back and start working with people. \nRead about Liliia’s experience #InsidetheDreamPod\, Afraid to Dream. \n  \n \n  \nMeet Jason Brooks (Los Angeles\, CA) | Relativ.ai \nMy dream is to establish an AI startup that leverages the most powerful tools available to promote equity\, inclusion\, and self-awareness\, while harnessing the collective power of human interaction. I am building a company that is using linguistics\, psychology\, and deep learning to bring out the best in human beings. Our vision is that this technology will become commonplace\, fostering equitable\, inclusive\, and reflective discussions in schools\, organizations\, and institutions. My hope is to witness a world where a deep\, profound\, and abiding sense of belonging is normalized\, and each person’s contribution is unmistakably recognized and valued.

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: Listening for God
DESCRIPTION:Our misconceptions of God can keep us from experiencing the incredible privileges of divine communion with Father\, Son\, and Spirit. Despite the ultimate mystery of who God is (how can the finite truly know the infinite?)\, the gospel is that this Triune God eagerly calls to us as both friend and child. \nThe (optional) accompanying text for this TRELLIS will be Dallas Willard’s Hearing God. This is a rich text as Willard guides us through how it is that we can actually hear God’s voice in our lives. With Scripture as its foundation\, Willard offers practical guidance in cultivating a life lived in conversation with God. \nThroughout the two-week experience\, you will be introduced to a variety of prayer forms\, learning to walk conversationally with God\, recognizing His voice in your life.  Trellis will guide you to integrate life-giving spiritual practices into everyday rhythms\, transforming and renewing our sense of calling.  Enter into this season with a new structure that provides the space and a community for hearing God’s voice and knowing who He reveals Himself to be in the midst of your everyday routines\, leading to holistic vitality. \nThe TRELLIS structure includes: \n\n1 Intro Session: Sun Oct 22\, 7:30-9p EST.

SUMMARY:TRELLIS: Reviving Calling
DESCRIPTION:For some\, the idea of discerning one’s call is synonymous with finding the right job\, but the Biblical notion of calling is much grander.  God’s calling engages the whole of our lives and was never meant to be isolated to one small aspect of it.  When we open ourselves up to God’s lead\, we can’t simply pick and choose which elements we follow and which we ignore.  For this reason\, the Christian notion of calling must begin first and foremost with the Caller.  Discerning our call does not start with self-oriented soul-searching\, but with an open and attuned ear towards the Shepherd who guides His sheep (John 10:13-16). \nThroughout the two-week experience\, you will be introduced to a variety of prayer forms\, learning to walk conversationally with God\, recognizing His voice in your life.  Trellis will guide you to integrate life-giving spiritual practices into everyday rhythms\, transforming and renewing our sense of calling.  Enter into this season with a new structure that provides the space and a community for hearing God’s voice and knowing who He reveals Himself to be in the midst of your everyday routines\, leading to holistic vitality. \nThe TRELLIS structure includes: \n\n1 Intro Session: Sun Sept 17\, 7:30-9p EST. (Online experience for theological introduction and time in listening quads. Recorded for those who cannot join live.)\n6 Communal Guided Listening Sessions: every Mon\, Wed\, and Fri 12:20-12:45p EST\, during the weeks of Sept 18 and Sept 25. (Attend live or listen to the 25-min recordings at personal set times.)\nDaily Scripture Meditation and Exercise Pages: Individually in your Listening Book. (Participants are provided with a digital PDF or can order their own physical copy online via Amazon.)\n\nThe communal listening rhythms of TRELLIS are intentionally designed as intrusions into your regular daily routines and\, therefore can be entered into from wherever you are. For more about TRELLIS… \n——————————— \n“If a vine doesn’t have a trellis\, it will die. And if your life with Jesus doesn’t have some kind of structure to facilitate health and growth\, it will wither away…The point of a trellis isn’t to make the vines stand up straight in neat rows\, but rather to attain a rich\, deep glass of wine.” \n— John Mark Comer\, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry \n

SUMMARY:Summer Fallow Retreat 2023
DESCRIPTION:We’re heading back to Lancaster for our next quarterly retreat! This carefully curated weekend of rest includes times alone and times together\, designed to give you the space to slow down and the structure to process the rapidly moving pieces of your life. The primary goal of our Listening Retreats is to help you discern God’s voice above all other voices in your life\, empowering you to confidently move forward in your calling. \nOur annual retreat rhythm each summer is a FALLOW RETREAT: We have 44 hours to put on pause all external pressures\, deadlines\, and expectations and allow yourself to lay fallow.  This means no productivity and instead allowing yourself the time to do the things that you enjoy\, things that normally get pushed aside or that you would feel guilty doing because of all of life’s exegencies. This weekend is a balcony moment\, a chance to step out of your regular routines of busy-ness and intentionally practice inactivity to restore the unseen places of our lives. \nJust as the flourishing of a tree is dependent upon the health of its roots and soil\, so too are work and spirituality interconnected and interdependent. Spirituality is the root system from which our work arises. Our hope for each retreat experience is that your inner spirit might be expanded with new hope\, reviving your work with love. \nLOCATION:\nLancaster\, PA 17603 (exact address shared upon registration)\nWEEKEND SCHEDULE:\n> Friday evening July 21\, 6:30-9:30p EST\n> Saturday July 22\, 9:30a-9:30p EST\n> Sunday July 23\, 9:30a-1:30p EST\nCOST: $250 per person* / $400 married couples* \nSpace is limited for this unique retreat experience. To request a spot on the waiting list\, please email info@goldenwoodnyc.org.\n*Your retreat registration includes all programming\, as well as all onsite meals. A block of rooms has been reserved and can be booked at a local hotel ~5 minutes from the retreat house\, or you are welcome to book a local Airbnb of your choice. \nLancaster is accessible via Amtrak from NY Penn Station. Harrisburg (MDT) is the closest airport (40 min away); Philadelphia International (PHL) and Baltimore (BWI) are equidistant at 1.5 hours away. Feel free to email info@goldenwoodnyc.org for any transportation assistance. \n  \nMore about the Goldenwood Quarterly Listening Retreats rhythm…
