Practising the Presence of God: episode 6
<p>This is the last of our first series of six episodes of the 'Glory in the Mess' podcast. In this episode, Helen Carr, Claire Dillamore and Robin Dillamore share a conversation around the practicalities of Practising the Presence of God in different life circumstances. All three of us belong to Presence House of Worship, a Christian community in Blacon (a suburb of Chester in England), which is made up of about a dozen adults and children who gather through the week to worship, fellowship and share meals together.</p><p><br></p><p>The discussion falls into three main areas. First, we circle back to Frank Laubach's book ("Letters by a Modern Mystic") and take a few minutes to discuss his practical advice about on how to win 'the game with minutes.' Then we reflect on our personal progress over the last two years in learning how to practise God's presence in community. In the final part, we look ahead to future episodes in which we plan to share some of the lessons we have learned in our journey of intentional Christian community, which began in November 2018. </p><p>The main resources referred to throughout this podcast series have been "The Practice of the Presence of God" by Brother Lawrence, "Letters by a Modern Mystic" by Frank Laubach, and "How to (actually) pray without ceasing," an article by Henri Nouwen which can be accessed at https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2022/01/24/henri-nouwen-prayer-unceasing-242269/</p><p>Thank you for taking the time to listen to this podcast. We hope you have enjoyed it! If you would like to receive news of further podcast episodes, please email Robin Dillamore at robin@worshippinghearts.org</p>

Practising the Presence of God: episode 5
<p>In this episode, Dan Lee, Claire Dillamore and Robin Dillamore continue the conversation, which they began in episode 4, on Practising the Presence of God and how we can do this in practice.</p><p><br></p><p>In episode 5, we turn our attention to community: What does it means for us to practise the presence of God together in community? Most of our conversation so far has focused on us as individuals, and how we can each practise His presence in our personal lives. This also seems to be the focus of most of the books and articles we have considered. Now reflect on the fact that the Bible was written to God's people as a community and not just as a bunch of individuals, and we consider how our community life and our gatherings can be meaningful times of practising God's presence together.</p><p><br></p><p>This is the fifth in a series of episodes which are being released every two weeks through the final quarter of 2025.</p>

Practising the Presence of God: episode 4
<p>In this episode, Claire Dillamore joins Dan Lee and Robin Dillamore to further explore the subject of Practising the Presence of God.</p><p><br></p><p>We have divided this conversation into two parts; the second half will be aired as episode 5. In episode 4, we attempt to get practical. So far, we have considered the inspirational writings of people who lived decades or centuries ago - Brother Lawrence, Frank Laubach, and Henri Nouwen in particular. Now we turn our attention to the question of what this all means for us in practice, today. Is the practice of the presence of God something that only happens in our minds? And if not, how do we engage our whole being in the pursuit of His presence (loving Him with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength)? In episode 5, we will go on to consider how we can practise God's presence together in community, and not just as a bunch of individuals.</p><p><br></p><p>This is the fourth in a series of episodes which are being released every two weeks through the final quarter of 2025.</p>
