A Season of Silence
Deep Listening in a Noisy World
By Joshua Rey
-
In the midst of our noisy, fast-paced world, finding moments of stillness can seem impossible, and the idea of staying silent, perhaps even a little daunting. Yet, these moments are where true peace and spiritual depth reside. Season of Silence: Deep Listening in a Noisy World invites you to embark on a transformative journey through the practice of silent, listening prayer. Over 40 days, this book offers daily steps that will gradually and gently guide you into a richer and deeper experience of contemplative silence. Each day offers a short reflection, a thought-provoking quotation from the Bible and other wisdom sources, and practical exercises to help you as you begin to cultivate a lifelong habit of contemplative silence. This isn’t just about quieting external noise - it's about fostering an inner stillness that continues to resonate throughout your daily activities, bringing clarity, peace, and a profound sense of presence. Whether you're seeking a structured spiritual practice, a retreat from the chaos of everyday life, or a way to deepen your connection with the divine, this book is an invitation and practical guide to help you pause, listen, and discover the transformative power of silence.
