Description
J. Brent Bill's Holy Silence is a contemporary classic on sacred silence. With warmth, wisdom, and gentle humor, Bill presents the Quaker practice of silence and expectant listening to a wider Christian audience. This revised and expanded edition includes new spiritual silence practices and a new section on incorporating holy silence into worship. Written by one of the most respected interpreters of the Quaker tradition, Holy Silence opens up for readers a fresh way of connecting with God.

I love this book. It's a beautiful introduction to the depths and riches of silence and of the Quaker tradition. I commend it to non-Quakers who want to learn more about the Quaker way, and to Quakers who want to deepen their faith and practice."
