Sibyl Towner and Joan Kelley join Sharon Swing to discuss Mama Maggie Gobran's wisdom on silence.


“I learned that silence is the secret.

Silence your body - to listen to your words.

Silence your tongue - to listen to your thoughts.

Silence your thoughts - to listen to your heart.

Silence your heart - to listen to your spirit.

Silence your spirit - to listen to his spirit.”

 MAMA MAGGIE GOBRAN, Founder and CEO, Stephen’s Children Ministry

Join us for the 'Listen to My Life' Virtual Coaching Group starting September 8, 2020. Find our more here: https://www.onelifemaps.com/virtualcoachinggroup/


oneLife Maps is, at its core, interested in helping people to recognize and respond to God in their stories. The seven lies Darrell talks about invitations to consider how a few shifts in perspective on how we think about God and faith effect our ways of being in the world. You don't have to agree with everything he says to appreciate the deep thinking that has led Darrell and others to a healthy spirituality that prioritizes love as its highest value.


If you have engaged in 'Listen to My Life: Maps for Recognizing and Responding to God in My Story' visual life mapping, you'll see that this conversation relates directly to the bottom line on the 'My Life Story' map, where you are asked to consider how you have noticed God, or viewed who God is over the course of your life. This conversation is a great way to help you sort out what stories you have been handed about who you are and who God is -- and prayerfully decide what to take with you, and what to leave behind.
