“Listening to God in the Chaos”
October 2026
”Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10a
I’m not sure if you’ve noticed this but life is busy. We’re coming into the “busy” part of the year. The only problem is, we just finished the “busy” part of the year.
I hear it all the time. “I’ve just got a lot going on right now.” It feels like with all the technology we’ve got that “saves us time” we should be able to slow down. Technology has found a way to help us squeeze more and more into 24 hours. But the side effects of this “productivity” are catching up to us. It should be obvious to us that the more we pack into the day, the more chaos we will experience. But we keep grinding, pushing forward, full steam ahead.
My question for us is this, “What is God saying?”
“Thomas, I don’t have time to stop and think about God. I can’t fit anything else into my schedule.”
I hear you LOUD and clear. We are TOO busy. But what if there was a way to incorporate listening to God into our daily lives? What if there was a method that we could learn that would help us “Listen to God in the Chaos”?
I’ve got great news!! That’s exactly what we’re going to be studying on Wednesday nights starting this Wednesday, October 7th!
Through my DMin program at Campbell I have designed a 6 week course that will help us learn how to slow down and listen to God through a process called “Theological Reflection.” (That’s a fancy term for listening to God!)
I designed this course with YOU in mind. Each week we’ll learn about aspects of Theological Reflection and have time to practice what we learn.
My prayer for this course is that we will learn how to carve time into our day to “Be still and know God” AND plug what we learn from God into our lives so that we can continue to grow into “Fully Devoted Followers of Christ.”
In Christ,
Pastor Thomas
