Previous Silent Sundays

I place my hand over my mouth

The invitation for this silent Sunday is to have a break from all the voices, thoughts, opinions and commentary that are going on around and within us, and to listen at a deeper level in quietness and trust to the beckoning of the Holy One. I invite you to join in with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections around this theme.


The Silence of the Heart

The theme for this silent Sunday is the silence of the heart, where we explore moving from our head-knowing to our hearts, and how this can deepen our way of being in God and participating in the creative unfolding of life. I invite you to open your hearts as we journey together, with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections to guide us through this theme.

Ruah

The theme of this silent Sunday is Ruah, the Spirit, Breath and Wind of God. I invite you to join in with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections around this theme.

Held in Tenderness

In this Silent Sunday we will explore the theme of being held in tenderness beneath the surface turmoil of our minds. I invite you to join in with the music, readings, prayers and reflections around this theme.

Instinct for a loving God

In this silent Sunday we will explore our instinct for a loving God. I invite you to respond to the beckoning tenderness of God as you join in with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections around this theme.

Return to Silence

This silent Sunday is an invitation to return to silence. Our lives so quickly become filled with content, activity and noise, and with that we feel scattered, with a sense of heaviness or overwhelm. So I invite you to respond to the beckoning of God in the silence as you join in with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections around this theme.

Deep listening from the heart

The theme for this silent Sunday is deep listening from the heart. I invite you to open your hearts as we journey together, with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections to guide us through this theme.

Poor in spirit

This silent Sunday is a personal reflection on the beatitude from Matthew 5:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” I invite you to join in with the music, readings, quiet prayer and reflections around this theme.


Letting go

Here in the southern hemisphere it is Autumn, which is a beautiful reminder to learn from nature of letting go. This silent Sunday resource is going to be a bit different, in that I will be using very few words, and rather invite you to reflect deeply on one poem. So join me in praying with the music, poem, quiet prayer and reflection questions around this theme.

The Cosmic Dance

The theme we will explore in this Silent Sunday resource is titled The Cosmic Dance. I invite you to join in with the music, readings and reflections around this theme.

The theme for this silent Sunday is Spring Awakening Growth. I invite you to join in with the music, readings and reflections around this theme.

Ever Faithful Ever Fresh

At the start of this new year, the theme we will explore is titled Ever Faithful Ever Fresh. I invite you to join in with the music, readings and reflections around this theme.

The hope of radiance

The theme for this silent Sunday is the remarkable description in Colossians 1:27 of "the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in us, the hope of glory". I invite you to join in with the music, readings and reflections around this theme.

Unknowing Receptivity

The theme for this silent Sunday is unknowing receptivity, and I believe this to be a deeply transformative attitude if we return to it regularly. I invite you to join in with the music, readings and reflections around this theme.

Everything is holy

The theme we will explore together today is based on the description given in Acts, that “In God we live and move and have our being.” In other words, wherever we go, whomever we encounter, whatever ground we are standing on, whether beautiful or troubled, we are on holy ground.

Like a child at rest

This silent Sunday is a follow-up to Talk 4 in the non-duality series on the mirror of shame. This is an invitation to practice letting go of the harsh, judgmental and self-shaming voice in our minds, and to open ourselves in childlike simplicity and trust to the realm of the still small voice that reminds us of our belovedness.
