About this Episode

Does silence ever feel uncomfortable? Do you fill the quiet with TV, music, or endless scrolling?

Fr. Mike explains why silence isn’t something to fear but something we desperately need, both in our daily lives and especially in prayer. While learning, entertainment, and even guided prayers can be good, true growth happens when we create space for silence and allow ourselves to hear the voice of God.
