OnePastor Podcast — Episode 57
Sit Still

What if one of the most spiritual things you could do today was simply sit still?

In this episode of the OnePastor Podcast, Donnie explores two powerful Bible stories that reveal how God often speaks most clearly when life slows down. One person chose stillness. The other had stillness forced upon him. Yet God met both of them in the quiet.

Join us as we look at Mary sitting at the feet of Jesus and Elijah listening for God's whisper in the wilderness. Their stories remind us that God's presence isn't always found in the noise, activity, or busyness of life. Sometimes it's found in the stillness.

Questions we'll explore:

• Why is it so difficult for us to sit still?
• Have we confused busyness with faithfulness?
• What was Jesus really teaching Martha and Mary?
• Why did God speak to Elijah through a whisper instead of a miracle?
• Could God's voice be waiting on the other side of our distractions?
• What if the quiet you've been avoiding is exactly where God wants to meet you?

Whether you're in a season of productivity like Mary or a season of exhaustion like Elijah, this episode offers encouragement to slow down, listen, and rediscover the presence of God in the quiet.

Plus, Donnie shares a brief update on his upcoming book, The Quiet Me Remembers, releasing this summer.

Key Scriptures:

• Luke 10:38–42
• 1 Kings 19:1–13
• Psalm 46:10

"God hasn't stopped speaking. We just have to slow down long enough to listen."
