"Ancient Paths has always been one of the highlights of the year. I never know what to expect going into a trip and always leave with a new insight, direction, or perspective. God has consistently used this space in my life to point out areas that need growth, attention and compassion and I am eternally grateful for the silence and solitude I am afforded each year with Ancient Paths."

“I used my senses in new ways. I was able to focus on the rhythms of nature. I experienced God speaking to me, ‘stay in My rhythm.’’”
