The Critical Need for Resting with God in Silence
In his book Beloved, Francis Chan tells the story of when his daughter was in Bible College and the teacher asked the class to sit silently alone with God for 7 minutes – and how most students couldn’t do it and started reaching for their phones or playing music.
Chan writes: “Silence and meditation are very important spiritual disciplines that are getting utterly lost in the American church. If you find yourself unable to be quiet for any length of time, you urgently need to start working out that spiritual muscle… This is not a light matter – I truly believe it is critical to the longevity of your faith.” In this broadcast, Mike and Bekah discuss the need to rest with God in silence.
“in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”
Isaiah 30:15
