Quaker Midnight

Show NotesIn this short reflection, Gene shares a lesson he first learned from Quaker writer Elton Trueblood—what he called Quaker midnight. It’s a simple but radical reordering of time: beginning each day in rest rather than work. This rhythm of rest is more than recovery; it’s the starting point of a simpler, more centered life with God.
