The RBRC Story
In 2017 I began a 3-year journey with 10 others in a Spiritual Formation training with Dr. Richard Bush and Candy Anderson. Over the next 3 years we went through 9 retreats at a beautiful retreat center in Colorado. My understanding of God went from limited to panoramic and I was healed in the deepest places of my soul. Near the end of that journey I prayed God would work through me to bring healing and spiritual growth to others. In November of 2019 I sensed God leading me to open a renewal center. Over the next year He brought all of the people and resources together to make the Richard Bush Renewal Center a reality.
The purpose of the Center is to provide a place where God can continue the work of healing and growth in the body of Christ. Psalm 46:10 says, 'Be still, and know that I am God.' And Proverbs 8:17 says 'those who seek me diligently find me.' God can speak to us anywhere, but we are a society of busy people with many distractions. A place of serenity in the beauty of creation is ideal for the transforming work God desires to do in us.

Dr Richard Bush

The Renewal Center bears the name of Dr Richard Bush, a humble servant of God who dedicated his life to helping others be spiritually formed by the nature and character of Christ. Dr Bush served as a local church pastor with the Christian and Missionary Alliance for thirty-one years, as a District Superintendent for 12 years, and held positions at the National office of the C&MA in Leadership Development. Richard believed we need to deal with the issues beneath the surface that affect our heart, soul, mind, strength and love for others. He impacted many lives for Christ before he went home to be with the Lord on June 25th, 2020 but his legacy lives on in the Life on Life Formation training. Through it, he taught that spiritual formation happens incrementally over time with others and for others. We honor the work God accomplished through Richard by naming the center after him and providing a place for God to continue the work.
