Description

Lectio divina, which means sacred reading, is an ancient contemplative practice of listening deeply to the voice of God in sacred texts.

In recent years there has been a reclaiming of the riches of contemplative prayer forms of Western traditions.

Through the practice of lectio divina you become present to each moment in a heart-centred way.

Gradually, the practice of lectio expands your capacity to sense God's presence until all of life becomes a cascade of prayer.

Drawing on her own experience as a monk in the world, Christine Valters Paintner breaks open the movements of this spiritual practice.

She makes them accessible to the contemporary reader who longs for a more pervasive experience of the holy in the everyday but lives far away from the sanctuary of a monastery.
