66. Practicing Silence

Monday - January 26, 2026

Dan reflects on how different vacation felt because of the quiet that came while being away. We introduce the spiritual practice of silence as a way to better hear from God.

Discussion Question(s)

• Have you had a day recently that felt like the opposite of your normal routine?

• What made it different, and how did you feel about it?

Prayer

Dear God, we thank you for the gifts of noise and of silence. The sounds we hear around our homes - laughter, music, conversations - are often made by the people we love. And so even when it can be a bit much, it reminds us that we’re not alone. At the same time, many people have found connection with you through silence, and we look forward to giving that a try this week. Amen.
