Description
There is a need in today's church to relate scripture and prayer in such a way as to enable us to speak God's words after him.
This book takes a simple lectio divina approach developed in the sixteenth century by Martin Luther and offers practical guidance to pray in this way.
Beginning each time of prayer with a Bible passage, Luther would meditate on it with four 'strands' in mind: teaching, thanksgiving, repentance and supplication.
Then he would pray, having his thoughts shaped by his reading, praying God's words after him, confident of God's grace.
Praying the Bible with Luther explains this method, demonstrates it and encourages readers to follow his example, helping us to turn scripture into prayer and to pray it into our own lives today.
