RHYTHMS 1: Silence & Solitude

In the kickoff episode of our new series, "Rhythms," we explore how spiritual disciplines are the intentional, everyday patterns that keep us rooted and growing in Christ. This week focuses on the first rhythm: Silence and Solitude. While these practices may feel difficult in a world filled with noise and distractions, they are essential tools for godliness, training our internal thoughts and desires to look more like Jesus on the outside. Drawing from Psalm 46:10 and the life of David, we discuss how "being still" is an active form of waiting that helps us realize God is fully in control of our chaos. By following Jesus’ example of seeking desolate places to pray, we can learn to hear God’s "gentle whisper" more clearly and find the true spiritual restoration that social media and entertainment simply cannot provide. Join us as we begin the journey of reshaping our lives around the habits that matter most. (Preached by Steve Coots at Crossroads YTH 1-14-26, re-recorded after due to original recording issue)
