Faith-Based Spotlight · free retreats and community groups

Enter the Lion is a Christ-centered nonprofit dedicated to restoring hope in the lives of those who run toward darkness. It provides free, small-group retreats where first responders, Veterans, and military service members can step away from the demands of service, reconnect with Christ, build meaningful relationships, and find renewed hope and purpose. Retreats include biblical teaching, group discussions, personal reflection, rest, and connection. Ongoing community and aftercare include virtual check-ins and peer connections. Retreats take place in East Tennessee, with virtual connection options. Travel assistance may be available for guests who need it.
