Join Dr. Hollisa Alewine for an exclusive Creation Gospel Trainer AND Creative Leadership Retreat in the Great Smoky Mountains on February 25-28, 2024. This event is open to ALL, not just Creation Gospel trainers and students. The Creative Leadership Retreat is designed to equip leaders who serve in any capacity, large or small.

Our focus is two-pronged: Teacher Training and Leadership.


Potential trainers will test with Dr. Alewine for certification, current trainers will be able to connect, network, exchange ideas, and learn from one another. Dr. Alewine will instruct in teaching basics for trainers.

The second component will be Creative Leadership, which is designed to give you basic leadership skills and practical ideas no matter whether you are a leader in your home, your fellowship or congregation, workplace, or other organizations. Beth Cloud of Jacob’s Tent will present skills in congregational leadership; Charli Brown of The Rooted Kafe will present skills in organizational leadership; Kisha Gallagher of Grace in Torah will present skills in relational leadership, and Dr. Hollisa Alewine will present skills in creative leadership. With so few beacons of light who are grounded in the Word, you are needed to shine brightly in these dark, confused, and troubled times. This retreat is designed to polish your skills, put practical tools in your ministry toolbox, and provide networking with those of like kind and like mind. You do not need to be a Creation Gospel trainer to attend these sessions.

We will be staying at Greystone Pointe Lodge in Gatlinburg, TN. This large cabin sits high above Gatlinburg with absolutely amazing views of the mountains and downtown Gatlinburg. It boasts of over 11,000 square feet, with two hot tubs, two large private decks, two 1,100 square foot gathering rooms - one on each level, a 25 seat theater room, and plenty of spaces to relax or fellowship with fellow attendees. Each bedroom has a private ensuite bathroom, and both decks have fire places to keep you cozy while gazing at the the majestic Smoky Mountains. Check out photos of the venue here.
