Silence, Solitude, and Prayer; Alone in the Desert with God

“So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed” Luke 5:16. Jesus made going to the desert alone for focused time with prayer a consistent habit. John the Baptist, who Jesus called “the greatest man who ever lived” up to that point grew up in the desert and had his ministry there. Solitude, silence, and prayer in the desert are spiritually powerful. In this episode, Mike shares his experience of a recent trip alone to the wilderness.
