Nurture your inner monk & surrender to the natural grace
& rhythm of your heart's deepest longings.
"The whole world is, in fact, a text of sacred revelation. All
experience has the potential to be revelatory, and God is singing
one unending song seducing each of our hearts. So the call is to
listen, to attune to the words God utters in the world." from the
Afterword
Break open this ancient contemplative practice of listening
deeply for God's voice in sacred texts. Drawing on her own
experience as a monk in the world, Christine Valters Paintner
introduces the foundations for a practice of lectio divina. She
closely examines each of the four movements of lectio divina as
well as the rhythm they create when practiced as a process. She
then invites you to expand your practice beyond traditional sacred
texts to a sacred reading of the world through image, sound,
nature, and life experience.
Whether you want to start a contemplative prayer practice or
deepen your experience of lectio divina in new ways, you are
invited to savor the gifts lectio divina has to offer your heart
and spirit."
