Your body, God’s design: clarity for a confused world

20 June @ 9:30 am - 4:30 pm

Cost: £65
Where: Waverley Abbey
Led by: Dr Jason Swan Clark

What if your body isn’t random, but a reflection of God’s love and purpose? In a world full of competing voices about identity, sexuality and self-expression, it’s easy to feel confused. Join us to explore the Bible truths that tell us that we are created in God’s image, and that our bodies are a gift.

We are fearfully and wonderfully designed to reveal His love, dignity and calling. This one-day event from Every Day with Jesus offers a clear, hope-filled vision of what it means to live as embodied people in Christ.
For more than 60 years, Every Day with Jesus has been helping Christians grow in clarity, confidence and connection with Scripture. This event builds on that trusted legacy, offering a faithful and compassionate framework for living out God’s design in today’s world.

‘Our bodies are not something to escape from, but to receive as they are, from a God who created us, within a material world that is Good. In Christ, God does not bypass our humanity, but enters it fully.’ (Dr Jason Swan Clark, retreat host)

What to expect:

  • learning
  • fellowship and connection
  • time to discuss and share
  • practical tools

Retreats at Waverley Abbey

There is something very special about being on retreat at Waverley Abbey. A place where your heart for God — your joy, tears, curiosity, prayers and songs — echo those of countless others who’ve walked our grounds these last 1,300 years. A stunning 112 acre site, where the coffee is as good as the scenery. And a welcoming community of teachers, worshippers, seekers and followers who are hungry for Christ and His ways.

So join us — retreat into sacred quiet, reset, and then go back out for God 🔥
