Speaking Truth to Your Soul: The Ancient Practice Renewed
Have you ever noticed how the most important conversations are often the ones we have with ourselves? In "Note to Self," Joe Thorn revives the ancient Christian practice of "preaching to yourself" - a discipline embraced by spiritual giants from Augustine to C.S. Lewis. This isn't mere positive self-talk; it's the deliberate application of God's truth to your own heart. In a world where we're bombarded with external voices telling us who we are and what we need, Thorn reminds us that the most transformative dialogue happens within. This forgotten art might be exactly what our distracted, externally-validated souls are missing. The practice of preaching to yourself - applying both law and gospel to your heart daily - isn't just another spiritual discipline. It's the fundamental way we appropriate the truths we claim to believe. By speaking God's truth to our own souls, we move from intellectual assent to transformative experience. Like Israel of old, we tend to forget the most basic and important things. We need constant reminders of our former slavery to sin, our new identity in Christ, our purpose for God's glory, and our mission to make disciples. Without these reminders, we lose humility, gratitude, purpose, and connection.
