10 - Use Quiet to Make Room for God


10 - Use Quiet to Make Room for God

I talk about the book “Stilte: The Dutch Art of Quietude” by Mirjam van der Witt explores the benefits of silence and how it can deepen one’s relationship with God. The author discusses the challenges of being quiet and offers practical advice on achieving inner silence. She also shares the experiences of others who have sought silence, such as Saint Benedict, and provides steps to help readers connect better with God. The book emphasizes the importance of building a relationship with God through silence and surrendering to His will.
