Soul CareÂ
Soul Care is the Core
God didn’t call you into ministry. He called you into intimacy. Out of intimacy flows ministry.Â
Why It Matters
- Leadership is holy work—but it’s also some of the hardest work on earth.
- Many leaders pour themselves out for others while running on empty themselves.
- You can lose your relationship with Jesus while leading others to Him.
“You can’t lead what you don’t live. What you hide will hollow you. God has called you to intimacy, not just ministry.”
- Mark Neal, CEO
The Oxygen Mask Principle
On a plane, you put your mask on first so you can help others. Soul care works the same way. You cannot sustain others if you’re not first breathing in God’s presence.
How Clarity Helps You Practice Soul Care
- Events: moments of encouragement and practical refreshment.
- Retreats: safe spaces for rest, renewal, and listening to God again.
Soul Care Retreats
You are invited to join Mark Neal, Doug Rife, and the Clarity Leadership team for a retreat designed to help you slow down, recharge, and truly care for your soul.
The retreat takes place at Horse Stamp Inn, a peaceful 17-acre southern estate in South Georgia with first-class accommodations, a 5-star chef, and an atmosphere created to help you exhale. It is the kind of place where distractions fade and God’s voice becomes clearer.Â
For 72 hours, you will have the opportunity to step out of the demands of ministry and rediscover the joy of simply being with Jesus. You will experience intentional rhythms of rest, meaningful conversations with leaders who understand your world, and space to reflect on how to remain spiritually healthy while leading God’s church.
You can’t miss this because every leader needs a place where they are not needed, not pulled, and not performing. A place where you can be honest, be refreshed, and be reminded that your soul is your greatest leadership asset. What happens here has the potential to shape how you lead, how you love, and how you finish.
Whether you come for the quiet, the community, or the clarity you’ve been praying for, you will leave encouraged, renewed, and re-centered on what matters most. Many leaders say these days at Horse Stamp Inn have been life-giving and even life-changing.
Your soul matters. This retreat is an invitation to breathe again. We hope you will join us.
