The Asceticism of Silence

The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal

Series on Silence Vs. Noise (Part 2 of 2)

What's the most prevalent voice that you hear in your life? Is it God's or someone's/something else?

We long to teach people how to pray and contemplative silence, inner recollection, and interior stillness are ways we can live in a relationship with God. But, there's a silver bullet to make people live in chaos and noise whether exteriorly or interiorly.

Every single day through general media we are bombarded with chaos and noise and there's this turmoil all the time both internal and external that's a direct attack on how God speaks and how He wants to give Himself.

Today, in the next part of this mini-series, we'll dive deeper into the importance and experience of silence and attempt to stir people's hearts to recognize that this silence is under direct attack and identify ways to defend against these attacks.
