When C. W. McPherson asked the members of his congregation to
practice just ten minutes of silence each day during Advent, it
seemed like a simple task. "It sounded easy, " said one of his
parishioners, "but then I actually tried to do it."
This concise, conversational, and engaging book is for those who
find it difficult or even impossible to slow down and be quiet. But
if we can't learn how to be still in the midst of a noisy world, we
will have a hard time listening for God's voice and guidance in our
lives.
McPherson explores the positive effects that practicing silence
has on body, soul, and mind. He provides historical background and
easy-to-follow instructions for a variety of Christian practices.
Among the practices included are Benedictine rumination, psalm
repetition, the Jesus Prayer, Ignatian meditation, meditation on
icons or candles, walking the labyrinth or the Stations of the
Cross, and more. This valuable book is written to be used by
individuals or groups.
