Charis Murrey: Conquering Temptation, Thoughts, and Shame
Do you sometimes feel you are fighting alone? Do you wonder if the armor of God really works? In this talk, given last summer at Camp 1833, Charis Murrey dives deep into the spiritual discipline of using the Word of God to combat the enemy's attacks, both external and internal. Charis courageously shares about highly personal struggles, and how her inability to control her circumstances led to the realization that she could, however, control what she believes. She stresses that knowing scripture in its proper context, and deliberately meditating on truth will help us see that we are never called to fight alone.

Bill Woodson: Worthwhile and Focused
When fear, shame, or failure happen to you, what is your response? Bill Woodson shares his story of feeling discouraged and worthless. He realized that feeling restored and renewed would come when he spent some time with God - alone. This practice of spending time with God has become an essential source of spiritual strength and direction for him. Using the story of Elijah, Bill explores how spiritual complacency and fear can leave us vulnerable to discouragement.
This talk was recorded in February 2025 at the CFO Virginia Retreat.

Kristi Thompson: My Good, Good Father: Finding Hope and Healing
Kristi Thompson lost her parents at an early age and struggled for decades with the grief. She shares a moving account of a moment at a CFO retreat when she finally grieved the loss of her parents after 35 years. It was through the safety of the CFO community that she was able to process this long-held grief and begin to heal. Kristi learned that a loving Christian community can act as family, and provide the support we need when our earthly family is no longer present.
This talk was recorded in July 2025 at Singing Hills CFO.
