Methods of Contemplation

Episode 3: Lectio Divina


Listen Later

In this episode, we introduce the practice of Lectio Divina, or "divine reading" an ancient method of relating to scripture. In this process, we engage the text not buy studying it in an academic way, but instead by relating to it. We begin by Lectio (reading), followed by meditatio (meditating), and then oratorio (prayer). We end in a silent time of contemplation. This way of relating to the Bible, or your holy text of choice can draw you closer to it in a more intimate way, breathing life into the text, and letting the text breathe into you.
