"Jim Draper is a rare gem; In a world full of people who talk the talk, he walks the walk. After living out his faith the last 40+ years Jim is a natural leader and coach. I’ve had the honor of being mentored by him for the past 2 1/2 years, and I’ve personally grown in a way I never thought possible.

At Goshen Falls Mountain Retreat, he uses real life experiences and teaches from a viewpoint of ‘been there done that’’.

Jim Draper has the uncanny ability to take highly complicated matters and break them down to make them easy to understand, easy to digest and moreover, easy to apply to your daily life."

"I’ve had the privilege of watching Jim Draper invite guests into conversation at Goshen Falls Mountain Retreat. In addition to to his warmth and authenticity, he is a natural host and I have personally experienced the hospitality offered to guests and helpers alike. Jim has a manner that bridges across people of all ages and stages of life. He is very welcoming to guests and his life reflects what he teaches. I’m grateful for time to both refresh at the retreat and enjoy the balance of fellowship, worship, teaching, nature, and prayer. I highly recommend Goshen Falls Mountain Retreat and I can not say enough to Jim Draper for his leadership and kindness extended to those who visit."
