Practicing His Presence

Thanks for joining us for this week's Lectio Divina episode from Psalm 1! We love this description of the practice of Lectio Divina from John Mark Comer:

"Lectio Divina (Latin for “spiritual reading”) is a way of reading Scripture with the specific aim of hearing God’s voice over your life. There are four basics movements (from four Latin words), but the mechanics are not as important as many people think. It’s less of a technique, and more of a heart posture and pace.

The basic idea is simply to find a quiet place to read Scripture slowly with your ear open to God’s voice through the text. Unlike Bible study (another wonderful practice) the goal is less to hear what he was saying to them (the original audience), but to take the next step and hear what he is saying to you."

As we heard this past Sunday, the Psalms are a guide for how we talk to God. Let's allow Psalm 1 to open us up to the good work He longs to do in us this week! If it's on your heart to share your story or your journey with us, we'd love to hear from you! Send an email to [email protected] or leave us an audio message!
