About this audiobook
Are you curious about biblical Christian meditation? Through stories, practical advice, and helpful prompts, Rick Hamlin guides Christians to center their minds and hearts on God as they seek to hear the still small voice above all the noise and chaos in the world.
Rick Hamlin has been unpacking the power of prayer in Finding God on the A Train and Ten Prayers You Can’t Live Without and the special Guideposts book, Prayer Works. In this new book, you will discover
- how meditation has deep Christian roots that go back for millennia,
- how it can be used to live more authentically and let go of anxiety,
- how to love more generously and find God’s will in your life, and
- how to grow in compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance.
The steps are simple, and at the end of each chapter Hamlin offers specific exercises to enhance your practice.
“If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take his cross daily and follow me,” Jesus said to his followers. Meditative prayer offers a rich resource to do just that. Silence speaks volumes and becomes a tool for all Jesus followers.
Thirty days of prayer and a Psalm resource included in the appendixes are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.
