Discussion Questions

8 questions

1.Which chapter or concept in this book made the most significant impression on you? Why do you think that particular idea landed so hard? What was happening in your own life that made it resonate?

2.Warren retrieves a set of largely forgotten words and concepts — aridity, acedia, compunction, stabilitas — and argues that recovering them gives us a richer vocabulary for the interior life. Which of these terms has most changed the way you name and understand your own experience?

3.Looking back at the arc of the book — from naming the problem of weariness, through the ancient practices, to the eschatological horizon of hope — how has your understanding of difficult seasons changed? Are you in a different place now than when you began?
