Our Instructor
Lindsay A. Franklin is the Carol Award–winning author of The Story Peddler and ECPA best-selling author of Adored: 365 Devotions for Young Women. By day, she wrangles chaos as Managing Editor of Enclave Publishing; by night, she spins whimsical tales fueled by hot drinks, rainy days, and the thunderous purrs of her spoiled cats. Lindsay lives among the misty evergreens of the Pacific Northwest with her family and is currently on a quest to discover the sparkliest nail polish on the planet.
Registration opens September 15. Check back mid-August for additional details on content and pricing.
About the Venue
The campus of Laguna Beach Christian retreat occupies a quiet stretch of coastline on the Florida panhandle, near the region often referred to as the Emerald Coast. Retreat attendees will be able to choose from group accommodations in 3-4 bedroom houses, shared studios, or private studios. We’ll have a dedicated meeting space and kitchen for sharing meals.
Speaking of meals–make your own favorites in your accommodations’ kitchen, or let us do the cooking and purchase an economical meal package. Details coming soon.
February might not be ripe for swimming, but it will still be lovely for quiet beach walks and reflection.
