Silencio: Reflective Practices for Nurturing Your Soul

SILENCE IS GOLDEN The Leadership Transformations team of 22 writers has assembled a year-long collection of soul-enriching reflections. Using Silencio as your guide into the life you long to live will be transformative for you and all who join you. This collection features 52 weekly reflections and 12 additional ones to accompany you in the church calendar. Each chapter contains an introduction to the theme, a public domain hymn for prayerful consideration, questions to ponder and exercises to practice, as well as a prayer and additional suggested resources. Silencio is Latin for silence, and often considered the first step into lectio divina, or sacred reading. Silence is the first rhythm of the deeper journey and the place where God often speaks the loudest. In silence we quiet ourselves in his love and prepare to receive the abundant life offered to us by our loving God. We know that the need for quiet, spacious encounters with God is universal. In our day of distraction and superficiality, our soul longs for profound, unhindered peace. Rhythms of grace guide us into sacred space in the presence of the living God. This unique resource will contribute to the depth of your soul and the vitality of your service in the Kingdom of God through the slow, steady, often hidden work of God.
