THE
SANCTUARY
Quiet Your Mind. Renew Your Thoughts. Deepen Your Walk With God.
A Christ-centered daily practice to help you break free from mental noise, process emotional burdens, renew your mind with Scripture, and experience God’s presence in your everyday life.
Does This Sound Like Your Daily Reality?
You love God. You want to be close to Him. But sometimes your inner life doesn’t look anything like the peace you’re longing for.
- You wake up already thinking about everything that could go wrong, everything you need to do, or something that happened yesterday.
- You try to pray or read Scripture, but your mind wanders—and before you know it, you’re thinking about your to-do list instead of being present with God.
- You know God’s Word says “take every thought captive,” but you don’t always know how to actually do that when the same thoughts keep coming back.
- You carry worries, hurts, disappointments, resentment, or fear that seem to follow you throughout the day.
- You want a deeper relationship with God—not just more Bible information, more church attendance, or another devotional to check off your list.
- And sometimes you simply wish you had a place to go each day to become still, hear from God, process what’s happening inside you, and begin again.
If any of this sounds familiar, you don’t need another thing to add to your already-full life.
You need a simple way to slow down, meet God in the stillness, and learn to work with Him on what is happening inside you.
This is where The Sanctuary begins: from meditation to transformation.
The Sanctuary helps Christians develop a daily practice that quiets mental noise, helps them process difficult thoughts and emotions, renews their minds with Scripture, and deepens their everyday relationship with God.
You don’t just learn how to meditate—you learn how to meet God in the middle of your real life.
You Love God. So Why Do You Still Feel So Far Away?
You read Scripture.
You pray.
You go to church.
You love God.
And yet there are days when you still feel anxious, distracted, emotionally heavy—or simply disconnected.
You may know about God without feeling deeply connected to Him in the middle of your everyday life.
You may even wonder:
“Why can’t I just quiet my mind?”
“Why do I keep thinking about the same things?”
“Why do I feel spiritually dry when I really do love God?”
You’re not broken. And you’re not lacking faith.
You may simply need a different way of creating space to be still, become aware of what’s happening inside you, bring it honestly before God, and allow His truth to reshape the way you think, feel, and live.
That’s the Difference Between Meditation and Transformation.
Christian meditation isn’t the destination.
It’s one of the practices that helps you become still enough to notice what’s happening inside you—and present enough to bring it into God’s presence.
And when that practice becomes a consistent rhythm, something deeper can happen:
- Your thoughts begin to change.
- Your emotional responses begin to change.
- Your relationship with Scripture begins to change.
- Your prayer life begins to change.
- And ultimately, the way you live begins to change.
From Meditation → to Awareness → to Renewal → to Transformation.
Drawing closer to God isn't about doing more.
It’s about becoming still enough to notice what’s happening inside you—and bringing it into His presence.
We often think we need another Bible study, another devotional, another prayer plan, or more discipline.
But sometimes what we need is space.
- Space to slow down.
- Space to notice what you’re carrying.
- Space to surrender what you’re trying to control.
- Space to let God’s Word speak into those places.
Stillness creates that space.
And that’s where Christian meditation becomes more than a moment of relaxation.
It becomes a practice of transformation.
The 5-Step Sanctuary Practice
A simple rhythm that helps you quiet your mind, process what you’re carrying, renew your thoughts with Scripture, and begin your day grounded in God.
1. WORSHIP
Turn your attention toward God.
Begin by shifting your focus away from the demands of the day and intentionally turning your heart toward God’s presence.
2. STILLNESS
Quiet the mental noise.
Slow down, settle your body, and create enough inner quiet to become aware of what’s happening within you.
3. HEART EXAMINATION
Notice what you’re carrying.
Gently bring awareness to the worries, emotions, hurts, thought patterns, or concerns that may be occupying your heart and mind.
4. RELEASING
Give it to God.
Bring what you’ve discovered into prayer. Surrender the fear, worry, hurt, resentment, or burden you’re carrying and make room for God’s truth and presence.
5. CLAIMING YOUR MIND
Begin again with God’s truth.
Anchor your thoughts in Scripture, your identity in Christ, and the truth you want to carry with you into the day.
You don’t have to do this perfectly. You just have to practice.
Over time, this simple rhythm can become more than a morning routine. It becomes a way of meeting God—and learning to respond differently to what happens inside you and around you.
What Can Begin to Change When You Practice This Consistently?
You may notice that you…
- Start your mornings differently — less immediately consumed by your thoughts, worries, and to-do list.
- Catch negative thought patterns sooner — instead of letting the same thought loop run all day.
- Have a way to process difficult emotions — rather than pushing them down or carrying them around.
- Respond instead of automatically react — especially when something triggers frustration, fear, or hurt.
- Become more grounded in Scripture — not just reading God’s Word, but learning to bring it into the way you think.
- Develop a more consistent time with God — without feeling like another devotional has become another item on your checklist.
- Know where to turn when life feels overwhelming — because you have a practiced rhythm for becoming still, praying, releasing, and renewing.
- Feel more connected to God throughout your ordinary day — not only during church, Bible study, or formal prayer.
The goal isn’t to create a life without problems. It’s to help you develop a different way of meeting God in the middle of them.
Come Inside the Sanctuary
Wondering what you’ll actually find inside? Take a quick tour with me. I’ll show you how The Sanctuary is organized, where to begin, and how the pieces work together so you never have to wonder, “What should I do today?”
More Than Meditations. A Complete Practice for Your Inner Life.
Christian meditation is an important part of The Sanctuary—but it isn’t the whole journey.
Different seasons of life call for different kinds of support. Sometimes you need help quieting your mind. Sometimes you’re carrying an emotion you can’t seem to release. Sometimes you need to renew a pattern of thinking, deepen your prayer life, or spend focused time with God around something you’re facing.
That’s why The Sanctuary gives you more than a collection of meditations.
Quiet & Refocus Your Mind
Guided Christian Meditations
Practice becoming still, shifting your attention toward God, and creating space to meditate on His truth.
Scripture Meditation & Biblical Affirmations
Move beyond simply reading Scripture and begin intentionally bringing God’s truth into your thought life.
Process What You’re Carrying
Guided Journaling & Heart-Reflection Practices
Create space to notice your thoughts, emotions, worries, and patterns—and bring them honestly before God.
Christ-Centered EFT and Emotional Release Practices
Explore gentle, Scripture-centered practices designed to help you work through difficult emotions and bring them into prayer.
Deepen Your Relationship With God
Guided Prayer & Prayer Declarations
Develop new ways to pray, reflect, surrender what you’re carrying, and remain connected to God throughout your day.
Devotions in Motion
Engage your body as well as your mind and heart through gentle movement-based devotional practices.
Go Deeper Into Transformation
Courses, Challenges & Guided Programs
When you’re ready to focus on a particular area of your spiritual life, choose from guided experiences that give you a more structured path to follow.
You don’t need to use everything at once.
The Sanctuary is designed to meet you where you are and give you a variety of ways to practice as your needs and seasons change.
Deepen Your Practice: The Growth Library
Go Deeper When You’re Ready
Your daily Sanctuary practice gives you a rhythm for returning to God again and again.
But some seasons call for a deeper focus.
Maybe you want to better understand Christian meditation. Maybe you’re working through a particular thought pattern, want to strengthen your prayer life, explore spiritual journaling, or spend focused time on an area of personal or spiritual growth.
The Growth Library gives you a place to go deeper—at your own pace.

Your Path From Meditation to Transformation
RESET → RENEW → RISE
You don’t have to do everything inside The Sanctuary at once.
Your journey begins simply: learn the practice, create a rhythm that works for your life, and then go deeper as you’re ready.
Think of it as three stages—not a rigid program you have to complete, but a pathway you can return to again and again.
1. Reset
Create Space for Something New
Begin with the foundation.
Learn the Sanctuary approach and create a simple spiritual rhythm that fits your real life—whether you have 15 minutes in the morning or more time to devote to your practice.
You’ll learn how to:
- create a rhythm you can realistically maintain
- use the 5-Step Sanctuary Practice
- choose the practices that best support you
- begin without feeling overwhelmed or wondering where to start
The result:
A clear starting point and a simple practice you can actually return to.
2. Renew
Practice New Ways of Thinking, Praying, and Responding
This is where the practice becomes part of your life.
Use the meditations, Scripture practices, journaling, prayer, and other Sanctuary tools to become more aware of your thought patterns, process what you’re carrying, and renew your mind with God’s truth.
The result:
You begin developing a different relationship with your thoughts, emotions, Scripture, and daily time with God.
3. Rise
Go Deeper and Carry the Practice Into Your Life
When you’re ready, explore the Growth Library, guided programs, challenges, and community experiences.
This is where you can spend focused time on the areas where you want to continue growing—and continue discovering how your practice can support you through different seasons of life.
The result:
A deeper, more personal spiritual practice that continues to grow with you.
There is no finish line.
Transformation isn’t about completing everything in The Sanctuary.
It’s about developing a relationship with God and a rhythm of returning to Him—again and again, through every season of your life.
The Sanctuary Continues to Grow
The Sanctuary isn’t a finished course you complete and leave behind.
New experiences are added so you always have something fresh to explore as your relationship with God and your needs change.
- New Guided Christian Meditations
- Scripture, affirmations, and prayer practices
- Movement and devotional practices
- Live Community gatherings
Your membership continues to grow because your journey with God does too.
Gather in His Name
You Don’t Have to Practice Alone
Transformation happens in the quiet moments between you and God—but sometimes it helps to know that other Christian women are walking the same road.
Inside The Sanctuary, you’ll find a community of women who are also learning to slow down, become still, renew their minds, deepen their prayer lives, and make space for God in their everyday lives.
__________
- Live gatherings and guided experiences
- A place to share insights and encouragement
- Opportunities to learn and practice together
- A community that understands the desire to grow closer to God
Come for the practice. Stay for the journey.
Want More Structure? Three Complete Transformation Journeys Are Included.
Sometimes you don’t want to choose from a library.
You just want someone to tell you:
“Start here. Do this today. Then come back tomorrow.”
That’s why The Sanctuary includes three complete, guided programs you can follow from beginning to end.
Biblical Emotional Freedom Technique
A guided emotional-processing practice that combines EFT, prayer and Scripture.
Explore specific practices for working through fear, anxiety and emotional pain.
40 Day Biblical Soul Reset Program
A guided journey for renewing your mind, processing what you’re carrying, and creating space for spiritual renewal.
40 days of lessons, guided meditation and journaling prompts.
My Morning Sanctuary Program
A 7-week journey for building a personalized morning rhythm with God.
Move from understanding why your morning matters to creating a practice you can actually sustain.
You don’t have to complete all three.
Choose the one that speaks to the season you’re in—or explore them over time as your needs change.

I Didn't Set Out to Create a Christian Meditation Practice. I Needed One.
Rhonda Jones, M.A., RYT-200
Christian Meditation Coach • Author • Meditation Teacher • Retreat Facilitato
20+ years helping people develop practices of Christian meditation, stillness and spiritual renewal.
For years, I loved God, prayed, read Scripture, and tried to live faithfully—but I was also struggling with depression.
I spent years trying to understand what was happening inside me and how to find freedom from the thoughts and emotions that seemed to have such a grip on me.
Christian meditation became a turning point.
It taught me something I had never really learned before:
I could become aware of my thoughts without automatically believing or following them.
I could become still.
I could bring what was happening inside me into God’s presence.
I could meditate on His Word.
I could learn to “take every thought captive.”
And over time, my relationship with my thoughts, my emotions, and God began to change.
Christian meditation wasn’t simply something I practiced. It became part of how I experienced transformation.
And eventually, I realized that what had helped me could help other Christians who were longing for something deeper than another devotional or another thing to check off their spiritual to-do list.
That’s why I created The Sanctuary.
“I’m not inviting you into something I’ve simply studied. I’m inviting you into a practice that changed my own life.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly happens during a ‘Live Gathering’?
These are our favorite moments! We meet via a private video link to practice a guided meditation together, dive deeper into a specific spiritual tool (like EFT or Journaling), and have a short Q&A. If you can’t make it live, every session is recorded and uploaded to the library for you to enjoy later.
Is it a mobile app?
The Sanctuary is on the Thinkific app platform, allowing easy access at any time of day.
How much time do I need each day?
We believe in ‘soul-care over soul-stress.’ While our signature programs are deep, our library includes ‘5-Minute Resets’ for busy mornings and ‘Sleep Meditations’ you can listen to as you drift off. Whether you have 5 minutes or 50, there is a place for you here.
Do I have to meditate every day?
No. The Sanctuary isn’t about perfection or checking another spiritual box.
The goal is to develop a rhythm of returning to God. Some days that might be a 5-minute meditation. Other days you may spend longer in Scripture, prayer, journaling or another practice. What matters is creating a sustainable rhythm that helps you remain connected to God.
What if I don’t know where to start?
That’s exactly why we created the Sanctuary pathway. Start with the 5-Step Sanctuary Practice and the onboarding experience, and we’ll help you discover what to explore next. You don’t need to use everything at once.
Can I cancel?
You can cancel at anytime no questions asked. It’s easy to cancel right from your account.
Is this different from Secular or Eastern Meditation?
Yes, fundamentally. While secular meditation often focuses on ’emptying’ the mind, Christian Meditation is about ‘filling’ the mind with God’s Word. Every session in The Sanctuary is rooted in Scripture and designed to help you abide in the presence of Jesus, not just achieve mental quiet.
You Don't Have to Change Everything Today.
Just begin with a few quiet minutes with God.
