  • Luke 6:12-19

    Reflecting on this passage, Henri Nouwen points out three distinct disciplines (rhythms) established by Jesus as the order for spiritual work. They are solitude, community and ministry. In solitude we can hear God speak. Out of solitude a community of people is formed to embody the mission. Finally, this community of followers goes out together healing the sick and troubled and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom.
