Dr. Trudy M. Johnson
Certified Trauma Specialist (CCTP-I)Helping you through Christian Retreats & Sabbaticals
My prayer before every intensive is that the words I speak to my clients would be God’s words and not my own. I would be honored to be God’s spokesman working with you for 4 or 5 days at an A’nesis Sabbatical.
In the words of Jeremiah, “You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you.” –Jeremiah 1:7
