Modern Formative Practices:
Music Contemplation




This Month’s Music:
Waiting on the World to Change
By John Mayer






Listen to this song and contemplate (on own or with your group):

  1. What is stirred within me as I listen to this song?
  1. What parts of this song align with what I believe God desires?
  2. What about this song runs counter to God’s desires?
  3. Do I believe I am supposed to wait for the world to change?  Or do I believe I am to be a catalyst for change in this world?
  4. What positive change in this world do I feel most passionate about?  How can I tangibly be about that change?
  5. Can you sense your soul being nudged in a particular direction?  If so, pray for God’s guidance and then move.

Why are these things helpful?
