Season: A Season of Resurrection - Life in Our Cells
Speaker: Kathy Swogger
Location: 3800 Marlton Pike
About Talk: Our friend Kathy learned in Sunday school and youth group that she was supposed to love the Bible and treat it like a manual for her life. This built up into guilt when she didn’t do her discipline or when she got bored. As an adult she learned that coming to the Bible with less expectation and obligation opened it to her in a new way. She learned to marinate in it. One way to marinate is old. It’s called Lectio Divina. Michiko led us in a version of this practice: reading a passage three times. Bite it, chew it, swallow it. Get it into you. We want to have a healthy relationship with the Bible and take it seriously so we can be it. This is one way to do that.
