Finding God in Unexpected Places and the Practice of Lectio Divina

This episode explores Sean's personal journey from a legalistic approach to Bible study towards a more intimate and reflective practice called Lectio Divina. 

This ancient practice, which means 'divine reading' in Latin, encourages a slow, meditative approach to scripture, focusing on listening to God on a personal level rather than seeking theological or doctrinal understanding. 

Sean shares the steps of Lectio Divina, involving reading a scripture passage multiple times to listen for a specific word or phrase that stands out and pondering on what God is saying through it. 

The invitation is to encourage listeners to try Lectio Divina as a way to deepen their spiritual connection and better listen to God's messages in their lives.
