The Challenge
Every soul has a discontent deep inside that longs for something more in our relationship with God. Our routine Christian practices seem like not enough sometimes and we tend to take that longing to lesser gods to satisfy what can only be satisfied in Jesus Christ.
But what should we do?
Our Conviction
Stonecreek Retreats were formed out of the personal conviction and experience of our pastoral leadership.
“It is ever-increasing my conviction that life in suburbia and the ministry extended by the local church is not enough for the human soul. I’m not indicting the church or negating the importance of its weekly ministry extensions. Rather, my conviction is that the solution for our longings isn’t another class, program or free download. The solution is found only in cooperation and interactive conversation with Jesus Christ. Only He can satisfy our longings, fill our deepest needs and heal our secret wounds. As ministers, we must lead others to this place, to the person of Jesus and quietly step aside once the introductions have been made. It is intentionally escorting people close enough to God to hear his voice and return their hearts to him. We must get away, and often.” - Ken Murphy, Lead Pastor
Our Retreats
Stonecreek Retreats offer you a place, a sacred space where your relationship with God can become an adventure again. We accommodate the quiet that has been marginalized and eliminated from our lifestyles. Each carefully designed retreat experience serves as a fuse in the life of a student, woman and man to ignite our interior worlds towards a regenerated heart in Christ Jesus.
More than a destination, Stonecreek Retreats fulfill what vacations and day spas cannot. Stonecreek Retreats take you to the giver of true life and sustaining freedom.

2010 Stonecreek Women's Retreat At WinShape | May 6-8
There may be nothing more beautiful in all the world than to see a woman set free to live from her heart as God's beloved. To discover who she is as a woman, released from the expectations the world and the church have set upon her. To see her heart healed from years of assault...or neglect. Are you ready to come away and rest?
