Practically, it creates a super-spiritual attitude that is divisive to the local church. I went to a Cursillo Weekend. I wish I had not gone to a Cursillo Weekend. I do not encourage anyone else to attend a Cursillo weekend. Ridgecrest and Glorietta Baptist Assemblies also have a full slate of retreats for anytime of the year.
Retreats are a great idea.
However, they are only a tool to help us grow in Christ. Maturity does not come in three days, even three days at Cursillo. Alan Branch Copyright 2000 by Alan Branch. All Rights Reserved.
