Quiet - Episode 47
Send us a textAnother experience of meditation from Thomas McConkie's podcast One Heart One Mind. "Episode 2: The Prayer of Quiet"Father Thomas Keating said in his book Open Mind Open Heart, “My conviction is that if people are never exposed to some kind of non-conceptual prayer, it may never develop at all because of the overly intellectual bias of western culture and the anti-contemplative trend of Christian teaching in recent centuries.”What happens if you take your foot off the gas?What would it look like for you to introduce more quiet into your relationship with your child?Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife's Strengthening Your Relationship courseYou found me!

Praying for Atmosphere - Episode 46
Send us a textA few thoughts on Thomas McConkie's new podcast One Heart One Mind.Moses 7:18 "And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them."Thomas's book Atonement: Embodying the Fullness of Human DivinityHoward Thurman quote from Disciplines of the Spirit:“The experience of prayer can be nurtured and cultivated. It can create a climate in which a man’s life moves and functions. Indeed, it may become a way of living for the individual. Indeed, it is ever possible that the time may come when a man may carry such an atmosphere around with him and gives its quality to all that he does and communicates its spirit to all who cross his path. This is the most remarkable impact of the life of the Master on those He encountered. It was this that stilled the ragings of the madman, that called little children to Him, that made sinners know that their sins were forgiven. His whole countenance glowed with the glory of the Father. And the secret? A great while before day, he withdrew to a solitary place and prayed as was His custom.”Mark 1:35 "And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed."You found me!
