De: Kees Postma

Looking for a story that speaks to the heart, stirs the soul—and leaves you smiling?

The Retreat is a warm, witty, and deeply moving Christian novel perfect for those who’ve lived a little, loved a lot, and maybe lost their way along the journey.

Meet Case Parker, a weary pastor who’s spent years pouring into others—only to find himself spiritually drained. Hoping for rest and renewal, he heads to a quiet retreat in the Irish countryside with a handful of fellow pastors. What begins as a simple getaway soon becomes a life-changing encounter—with God, with others, and with himself.

At the heart of the retreat is Cornelius O’Hallihan, an unforgettable Irish preacher whose gentle wisdom and grace-filled truth speak directly to life’s deeper questions. Through laughter, tears, and moments of surprising clarity, Case—and the reader—are reminded that it's never too late to rediscover hope, purpose, and the joy of grace.

Whether you’ve spent your life in ministry, supported someone who has, or simply long to feel God’s presence again in the everyday, The Retreat offers more than just a good read. It’s a reminder that healing is possible, laughter is holy, and God’s grace never runs out.

“Through simple storytelling and humour, Kees cuts through our defences and goes straight to the heart of the problem: our hearts.” — Seth Lewis, pastor and author of Dream Small
