Lectio Divina

Or Divine Reading

 

"To get the full flavor of an herb, it must be pressed between the fingers, so it is the same with the Scriptures; the more familiar they become, the more they reveal their hidden treasures ...."-- St. John Chrysostom, A.D. 347-407

 

Read the scripture with ears of the heart.

Reflect on how God is speaking to you.

Share your thoughts in open prayer and discussion.

Rest in the Word.

Repeat the process so the scripture is read 2 to 4 times
