Solitude Sermon Notes
How do Believers Grow in Grace? Disaster or Discipline
The Gospel is the Good News of the Cross and Resurrection of Jesus Christ by which we become the Righteousness of God.
The Spiritual Disciplines - physically activity that helps open my spiritual heart to receive the love of Jesus Christ.
Is this Law? No, this is an activity to open my heart and life to receive more grace.
What is the motivation? Not guilt but love.
My attitude toward the Disciplines is to experiment and have fun.
The Divine Conspiracy; Rediscovering Our Hidden Life In God, by Dallas Willard.
Luke 4:32 - And when it was day, he departed and went into a desolate place. And the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them
Solitude - Do Nothing. Being out of human contact, being alone, for lengthy periods of time.
What does that mean? What do we really do? We turn loose, observe/listen, sit, walk.
What might happen?
I may discover I have a Soul. I may discover that God is near/with me. I may discover that creation is brimming over with His goodness.
Do I need this?
Hurried Life? Multi-tasking? Clutter? Sunset Fatigue?
Matthew 11:28-30 - The Message - “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
How do we do Solitude?
Daily Quiet Time - devotional prayer time alone with God, every day.
Walk/Sit - extended time, only gentle sound of nature
Retreat - Edisto Beach or local church, alone with God.
