2017 Dallas Willard Center Book Award Finalist Jesus is speaking to
us here and now. Lectio divina is a practice of Scripture reading
that treats the Bible not only as a text to be examined, but also
as the living Word of God spoken anew to us. Experienced Bible
teacher Jan Johnson gives us forty Scripture meditations, organized
topically, giving us the tools we need to practice lectio divina on
our own. Each meditation can be used both individually and in group
settings, and includes an introductory space of quiet along with an
optional preparatory exercise; the full text of a passage from
Scripture with explanations of unusual or important words, and with
cultural and historical background as needed; cues to help us enter
the text; space to contemplate the passage, respond to God in
prayer and rest in his presence; and an exercise to "try on" one of
the main ideas of the passage in our daily lives. Meeting God in
Scripture moves us beyond merely understanding what the text meant
in its original context to a direct spiritual encounter with
Christ.
