Values In The Kingdom #5 - Silence & Solitude // Chris H.

Sermon Questions - * Review 1 Kings 19 - It is the human condition to avoid sadness (We are afraid to be alone). * Review Push and Pull Phenomenon - There are forces inside and outside of us that conspire to work against our attempts at silence. * If God were asking you the same question he asked to Elijah (in the midst of his fear and exhaustion), how would you answer "What are you doing here?" * When it comes to practicing silence and solitude, do you find yourself running from distraction? And in what ways? * Review the process against distraction/frustrated: 1)Rest 2)Wait 3) Feeling 4) Naming * Discuss what was interesting or catching to in each process event * Discuss how the process as a whole creates transformation with God
