During the Advent season, we are using Pauses for Advent: Words Of Wonder by Trevor Hudson as a guide. 

Each entry in the guide - beginning November 27 - follows the rhythm of Pause-Meditate-Practice. 

On this particular Sunday, we took time to try and catch the rhythm as a congregation.

 

PAUSE

Mark 1:1-3

 

MEDITATE

Darren's homily

 

PRACTICE

• Find a place that is abandoned. Look at it for awhile. Pray.

• Reach out to a person that is in the wilderness. Write a note. Share a coffee. Make a call.

• Sit on some grass. Ask some questions and take some notes. What do I want right now? Why do I want that? Who am I? Who am I not?

• When you are waiting somewhere sometime soon - and you will wait - look around, see people, and pray.

• Listen to Oprah’s Supersoul conversations podcast with Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor: “My Stroke of Insight”

 

BENEDICTION

Be still and know that I am God.

Be still and know that I am.

Be still and know. 

Be still.

Be.
