On this weeks podcast we are joined by Fr Frank Duhig to reflect on lectio divina - a ancient monastic way of prayerfully engaging and reflecting on scripture as the Word of God. Lectio divina, or "divine reading," is an ancient Christian prayer practice that involves slowly and contemplatively reading a short passage of scripture to foster a deeper communion with God. It typically follows four movements: reading the text (Lectio), reflecting on a word or phrase that stands out (Meditatio), responding with prayer (Oratio), and resting in God's presence (Contemplatio). The goal is to listen to God's word personally rather than to simply study a text.  We have our regular run through the liturgical odds and ends of the week including the Pope's prayer intention for October (straight from his lips to your ears!) as well as our saints for the coming week.In part three, we have our regular sharing on the Sunday gospel where Fr Frank takes us through a brief application of lectio divina to this weeks Sunday gospel and to give an flavour of how to engage with it.  Text us at +353 874668950 or email at [email protected]
