About This Podcast

Whatever it takes to help us all learn to sit quietly in the presence of God and our own soul. We’re going to spend some time each episode considering a small section of scripture, paying attention to how our soul responds to that, what invitation God might be extending to us, and what we want to do about it. Sometimes, we’ll introduce a spiritual practice instead. Either way, our goal is to gently lean into the practice of being Quiet on Purpose.
