A 7-week practice following the seven signs of Jesus in John’s Gospel
(Lent 2021 resources)
The practice of “silence” is learning the discipline of resting in the presence of God. Silence kills our compulsion to fill space with noise, our need to speak, and helps us develop ears to hear what God might have to tell us. This is the practice of Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God.”
This prayer practice focuses on slowing down throughout the day to pay attention to your breath as you pray a simple prayer. These breath prayers help you re-center on aspects of your relationship with God in which you choose to focus. Follow the link below for more details and for examples of using scriptures for breath prayer.
Dwelling in the Word is a slow, meditative, reading of scripture where you are mindful of God’s presence with you. This practice helps you be attentive to God’s voice in your life through scripture. This is not a “Bible study” tool but a journey from your head to your heart to allow scripture to interpret your life and call you into faithful discipleship.
