Weekly Centering Prayer Group
Fridays, 9am-10am
Mondays, 5:30-6:30pm
Providence Church, Mt. Juliet, TN
20 minutes of silence followed by
meditative Scripture-reading (Lectio Divina)
& every 3rd Thursday, Visio Divina (meditating with art or photographs)
To begin a personal Centering Prayer practice,
Contemplative Outreach's app is available in Google Play and iTunes.
"Centering Prayer is a prayer practice that provides a time and space to come into the presence of God and just 'be.'
Although the power and presence of God is all around, it has helped me connect and understand the idea of having a
personal relationship with Jesus. It's a time to be present to God in silence and "abide with Him" as it says in John 15:4.
Centering Prayer is a way to rest in God. It calms my mind and soothes my soul and the best thing is - you can't do it wrong.
You just show up and God does the rest." - Marla

Documentary & Discussion Nights...2019 Schedule to be posted soon!
If you would like to check out any of the films shown this year, contact me to find out how to borrow them! January: In Pursuit of Silence April 7th: Be Still August 11th: Emotional Sobriety An evening with Richard Rohr, "When 'happiness' eludes us—as eventually it always will—we have before us the invitation to examine our programmed responses, and to exercise our power to choose again. We exaggerate, confuse, and distort reality, thus causing an emotional imbalance in our families, our church, and our politics. We can learn to heal our reactive responses by seeking 'emotional sobriety,' which is really the task that we call contemplation. Authentic spirituality should lead to a total "rewiring" of both our conscious lives and our unconscious, or programmed, responses. It will not just change external behaviour, but internal emotions and responses, what some call "the healing of memories." After watching, we'll have a time of discussion (which includes doubts & disagreements!). Listen to what drew others' attention and tell how the film intersected with your own life. Hot tea station & snacks available. |
