Joe and Jimmy are back and offer up a real episode on the discipline of silence and solitude. Yes, back in 2017 we published an April Fool’s joke that some of you fell for. Forget that. This is the real deal. Is solitude a biblical discipline? Why does it matter, and how should we do it? We encourage you to pick up Don Whitney’s book, Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life to go deeper. DOCTRINE AND DEVOTION IS COMING TO TEXAS! Our Southwest Conference is going down on Saturday, March 21 at 10:00 a.m. in Burleson, TX at Graceview Baptist Church. Our theme for this one-day micro conference is Contending for the Gospel: Protecting Orthodoxy and Promoting Unity. Joe Thorn and Jimmy Fowler will teach four sessions exploring how we contend for the faith against heresy and false doctrine with those outside the church, as well as those inside the church. The conference will conclude at 4:00 p.m. after a live recording of the Doctrine and Devotion Podcast. Tickets are just $40 when purchased in advance, and only a limited number are available.
