Pastor Paul and Mark are continuing their quest to help us examine the conditions of our soul by looking at the first in a trio of topics all vital to our soul-health: solitude. The importance of solitude and its ever-present partner, silence, might seem counterintuitive in a world that so values and exalts being productive above all else. But solitude is a discipline that forces us to be present in the moment and face the truth of ourselves in a distraction-free environment. It allows us to press pause on our daily lives and start reflecting and reconnecting with the One whose voice can sometimes be drowned out by the chaos and cacophony of the world around us. In the practice of solitude, we follow Jesus' example in Luke 6 of taking time away to be with God. The seemingly unproductive nature of stepping away to do nothing actually helps produce a soul that is happier, healthier, and more grounded in Christ.
