Advent Silence and Stillness


 "Silence and stillness are infinitely simple disciplines. They are also infinitely difficult, especially in the context of our bombarded twenty-first century minds. Habitual stillness and silence require deeper and deeper livels of surrender on our part. To let go of all agendas and settle into a deep silence is perhaps the most countercultural thing we can do. It requires trust that silence and stillness are indeed God's first language, and when we meed God on God's terms amazing things happen. What happens will not be by our design...." (Amos Smith)
