You’re Invited to a
Men of Valor Leadership Retreat
“The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valor.” (Judges 6:12)
Our troubled world is looking for “Men of Valor”… men like King David Gideon, Joshua and the mighty men who fought with them … like the apostles, martyrs, and other Christ-followers that we read about over the centuries … men of passion, courage, and strength who God used to advance His kingdom in spite of their temptations and sins which are common to men.
At our upcoming “Men of Valor” retreat we will embark on a biblical adventure to discover who we already are in Christ as “Men of Valor” – like King David and his mighty men … bold as lions, overflowing with praise and willing to shepherd this new generation as spiritual fathers commissioned to transform our troubled world! We’ll also reflect on how being a man of valor impacts our leadership at home, at work, and in the Church.
Meet the Speaker: The Rev. Dean F. Schultz
The Rev. Dean F. Schultz is an Anglican priest who has made the ancient paths of Judeo-Christian worship “come alive” for many nations using multimedia assisted teaching and preaching, signs, symbols, liturgies, iconography, the visual & performing arts, and the singing of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs accompanied by the Davidic instruments of the Psalms (harps, lyres, psalteries) and the multi-ethnic instruments of the nations.
Before founding Worship Equippers (WE) in 1996, Dean served as a missionary with CRU, in Washington D.C., a pastor with the Christian & Missionary Alliance, and itinerant minister equipping Christians from churches of many denominations for worship renewal at retreats, seminars, conferences, symposiums, and schools. His passions in life include equipping men for growth into manhood so that they may fulfill their calling as spiritual fathers to this generation.
Fr. Dean serves as the Associate Rector of the Church of the Holy Spirit (Anglican) in Leesburg, VA. He and his wife Glorianne been married for 46 years, have 3 adult children and 4 grandsons!
