Episode notes
Multiple Voices In One Story
- The story shows God speaks through Christ, Scripture, the still small voice, sacrament, and prophecy.
- Hearing God is relational: encountering Christ makes texts and experiences come alive.
Adopt A Broad Listening Menu
- Do cultivate a broad approach to hearing God that includes Scripture, tradition, prophetic gifts, dreams, and the still small voice.
- Try different modes in different seasons rather than excluding entire practices by tradition.
Sabbatical Prayer Routine
- Pete and his wife spent sabbatical mornings praying scriptures together using Lectio Divina and two minutes of silence.
- Repeating a short phrase in silence helped them become aware of God's presence and shaped their prayer life.
