“Dressed for Battle” is our newest free, downloadable skit available on the website! The graphic, created by AI, is also a free downloadable. This one act skit highlights the armor of God as described in Ephesians 6. Packed with scriptural truth, this skit creatively compares the armor God provides with the superficial armor offered in the world. Check it out here.

Leave a Comment (0) →Welcome to Retreat-in-a-Bag.net! We want to especially welcome all of our new subscribers who have joined us in the past few months. We’re glad you found us! I hope you find us to be a valuable resource for retreats, skits and Bible studies. Our vision for this website from the very beginning was to provide resources for women’s groups, smaller churches and home groups.
As you explore the website, you will note that we are no longer limited to only retreat content. Our website includes years’ of blogs on retreat/event planning, arranged by topic. Look under “blog” for the topics.
We have a number of free and downloadable skits. These range in length from shorter one-act skits to longer “serial” skits of two to four acts. These skits present Biblical truth in a humorous and often exaggerated format, perfect for use with your women’s event or retreat. While most are written with a specific theme in mind, many can be adapted for any setting–Bible studies, women’s teas and events, children’s events, retreats and event mission trips.
We have written Bible studies over the past 25 years used in our women’s ministry that we have now made available for purchase. We have three “types” of studies: (1) In-depth verse-by-verse studies that we typically use during our semesters (Sept-Nov and Jan-May); (2) In-Depth topical studies; (3) Short topical studies that we use during the less structured summer months.
As you browse these resources, you can see the length of each study and determine what best suits your group. All are written to engage women with varying levels of Bible study expertise.
We also have premium themed retreat/event resources available. These can be used for retreats, special events or simply to enhance your regular Bible study with fun and meaningful application.
You may have noticed that we do not post regular blogs anymore. However, during the month of August, we will be introducing you to some of our newest content. You can expect to receive a short email about twice a week during this month.
Let us know if you have any questions!

The premium resources include:
Free resources include longer “serial skits” we have used at retreats where we have time for more than a one-act skit. We have shorter skits that have been used for various events. There are free downloadable graphics as well as short quiet time Bible studies which we also use at retreats. Some of these may be applicable if you just want to do a once a month Bible study for your ladies. Blogs written over the years address topics which include retreat planning, developing leadership location, lessons learned, skits, and inspiration.
Check out the website and take time to explore our resources!

Sometimes we do two lessons a week, since the lessons are so easy. Our summer sessions provide more opportunity for fun and fellowship. Often we decorate, add fun snacks, and many of our studies have free downloadable skits that accompany them. (See the description of each book to see if skits are available.)
We currently have 11 of these short studies available. Check out our offerings at https://www.retreatinabag.net/available-womens-bible-studies/ .
