Episode Synopsis

The meaning of lectio divina is “holy reading” in Latin. Traditionally, Lectio Divina has four separate steps: read; meditate; pray; contemplate. First a passage of scripture is read, then its meaning is reflected upon. It’s a very slow way to go through scripture.
The focus of Lectio Divina is not a theological analysis of biblical passages but viewing them WITH Christ as the key to their meaning. It’s less about you reading the scripture, & more the scriptures reading you, in reflection. In Lectio Divina, the practitioner "enters" and shares the peace of Christ rather than "dissecting" it, for example. May this practice bless you & inspire you to savor slowly God’s Word.
