Richard, Jared, and Clint explore the disciplines of solitude and silence - very interesting disciplines! We'll talk about the holidays and how they relate to silence and solitude. We'll dig into what these disciplines look like, discuss why they're necessary, and provide some ideas to intentionally place these into your schedule. Henry David Thoreau said, “I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.” Luke 5:16: "But he (Jesus) would withdraw to desolate places..." Give us a few minutes to share our ideas, and then - let us know what you think!
