A quiet time. What is it? Why do we need it? Does it matter? And honestly, the name is a little bit maybe weird. So, if you've never heard of it before, it's okay; you're not alone. There has kind of become a trend of creating a materialistic quiet time. And what I mean by that is we need all of this stuff to meet God. A really fancy Bible, or we need a bunch of highlighters and fancy pens. Maybe we need stickers or coffee and music and a cute living room. By the time we're done, we will have this magnificent Instagram set showing how to study the Bible. And we've actually missed the entire point. The goal of a quiet time should be intimacy with the Savior of your soul. That's it. And the elements that make that possible are the Word of God and prayer.
