Dare To Soar

coupleDare2SoarFrom Greg Huston, Crucible Project Founder

One of the great joys of our lives is working with couples and helping them create loving, heart connection with each other.  We help couples identify and work through the issues that get in the way of experiencing closeness and intimacy.

If this is what you want more of in your relationship, we invite you to sign up today!

This retreat is filled with exercises where you will learn a lot about yourself and your partner in a safe, “fun” environment with lots of experiential learning.  You will have an opportunity to spend time alone together, as well as learn from others in a group setting.

Friday, October 16, 7:00-10:00 p.m.
Saturday, October 17, 9:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Sunday, October 18, 9:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Register by mailing a $100 deposit to “Dare to Soar, LLC” at the address listed below or go to our website, idaretosoar.com, and register through the contact page with PayPal.

Keep It Going

Keep It GoingYour initial weekend wasn’t the end.  Have you considered the benefits of the Two Year Transformational Program?
If you’ve participated in an initial Crucible Men’s Weekend (or its equivalent):

  •     Discover your God-given purpose as a man.
  •     Become an authentic man who lives at deeper levels of integrity.
  •     Mine your inner, God-given strength and live with greater confidence and courage.
  •     Live more courageously – willing to shake things up and take risks; penetrating your world.
  •     Be more alive – living from your heart.
  •     Let go of sexual shame and embrace sexuality as a sacred gift – full of life, connection and creativity.
  •     Build more authentic, loving relationships with others.
  •     Grow into a more effective leader.

DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM

This is a two-year program of transformation for men.  The purpose of the program is to help men live with courage, integrity and grace so they can be the best men they can be.  We support men in their masculine journey to live as whole men who are warriors, lovers, sages and kings, like Jesus. We create experiential, grace-filled environments for emotional and spiritual transformation, to unleash men’s purpose, passion and power in the world.

THE PROGRAM INCLUDES:

Weekend Retreats:  Four experiential weekend retreats during the duration of the program.  Topics to be covered include mission/ life purpose, sexuality and leadership.
Men’s Group:  Facilitated to assist and support you in applying learning from the retreats and your life.  Groups meet three times a month.
Coaching: Monthly coaching sessions to help further “individualize” your learning from the program.
Staffing Crucible Initial Weekends:  Priority status to serve on staff for initial Crucible weekends.  Use what you learn in service to other men.

The leader of the two year program is Judson Poling, Weekend Leader & Ministry Director
