Solitude over Isolation
Manage episode 260751991 series 2664824
In our third episode of this season, we discuss the practice of solitude. Unlike isolation, solitude seeks to intentionally remove yourself from noise and distraction to place yourself in the presence of Jesus.
"In a noise-polluted world, it is even difficult to hear ourselves think, let alone try to be still and know God. Yet it seems essential for our spiritual life to seek some silence, no matter how busy we may be. Silence is not to be shunned as empty space, but to be befriended as fertile ground for intimacy with God." - Susan Muto
