Getting Quiet with God with Simi John- Episode 16


Listen Later

Our Comfort & Joy series continues this Advent, as we lean into spiritual disciplines (practices that connect us with God). 

 

This conversation is all about two practices that are so hard to implement but so important for our souls: silence and solitude.

 

My friend Simi John is here to lead us in this, and I'm so excited for you to get to hear from her!

 

Simi is the author of I AM NOT, a Bible teacher with a study on Right Now Media, and a writer who contributes to (in)courage with DaySpring. Simi is a pastor's wife, mom of two, and a physical therapist by trade. 

 

Join Simi and I as we talk about: 

  • why we feel uncomfortable when things get too quiet for too long
  • getting honest with God
  • what we miss out on when we don't make space for quiet and solitude in our lives
  • working with (not against!) your personality when it comes to being alone with God
  • practical tips for making space for silence and solitude in your life
  • what to do when you get quiet and your thoughts run wild
  • why getting away and getting alone is about more than taking a break
