The Power of Silence: When God is Silence and When We Should Be Silence - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book explores the power of silence in Christian life. Silence is powerful when guided by God, but it must never become an excuse for fear or compromise or disobedience. It asks when God is silent and why that silence is not absence but a call to deeper trust. It also examines human silence and the wisdom of knowing when not to speak. Silence can be an expression of faith and self control and worship and patience. Drawing on biblical figures like Jesus and Job and Esther and David, this book shows that silence can be strength under control. But there is a time to speak for truth and for the vulnerable and for the gospel. The mature Christian learns to discern the voice of God, and therefore knows when to speak and when to remain silent. The goal is not to become silent people or talkative people but discerning people.
