  • Welcome to this 20 Min. Christian Meditation Practice!
    This video will equip you to go deeper into your meditation practice, especially as you encounter obstacles to sitting in stillness, silence, and solitude for an extended period of time. In his book Christian Meditation, James Finley writes, "to stop meditating simply because we feel we are not good at it amounts to abandoning the very aspects of our self that need patience and loving encouragement. "
    In this practice we make space for and compassionately turn our attention towards the places in our hearts that feel unlovable. Use this video a time or two to help familiarize yourself with this kind, compassionate, and courageous presence, and then practice on your own, in full stillness, silence, and solitude.

    I was so excited to see this pop up in my subscriptions feed this morning. One of my sons woke me up super early this morning afer another bad night of sleep - I've been grumpy, off balance and so disconected from my closeness with Jesus. I totally needed this meditation today to help reconnect and focus on God. Thank you Caroline! You're awesome!

      Ha, Ken! It's why we call it a Meditation "Practice." It can be really challenging to sit in stillness for an extended period of time but over time it becomes more familiar.

    So wonderful. I am doing this with you every day once in the morning and sometimes once in the evening. I am a very hyper person lol and this has really helped me slow down and become aware of the presence of God and his love for me❤️

    One other comment - working in business in a high visibility position, my mind is just splattered across a thousand ongoing conversations during the day - but then doing meditation on the drive home is hard! It's hard going 100 mph in my mind then hitting the emergency brake to stop completely with God. I need to practice this more!

    Thank you Caroline for all the work and time you put into helping us grow closer to God. There are some conversations with God that are hard to have, and with this meditation I was able to break down before the Lord and let his light shine in my heart and by the time the meditation was over, I had reached a place of surrender and my conversation back to Him were in line with his heart and will.

    Thank you so much for this. I've had quite the emotional weekend and have been asking myself a lot of Life type questions about where I'm at in my life and where Jesus wants me to be. This really helped me and I will need to listen to it a few more times to let it settle in. Thank you so much God bless

    I am still continuing to do this with you almost every day. I was wondering if you would also consider doing a Lectio Divina with some other scriptures next❤
