Riassunto:

With a clarity that all will welcome, Stephen Binz shows how we can read and reflect on Scripture in ways that enable us to hear God speaking to us in our hearts. Examples of the ancient practice of lectio divina using seven biblical passages are included as well as questions for reflection and discussion, making this book a useful tool for those in faith-sharing groups. Suitable both for beginners and those seasoned in prayer.“I would like in particular to recall and recommend the ancient tradition of lectio divina. . . . If it is effectively promoted, this practice will bring to the Church—I am convinced of it—a new spiritual springtime.” —Pope Benedict XVI, Address to Congress on Sacred Scripture in the Life of the Church, September 16, 2005 “An inspiring explanation of lectio divina, based on ancient Church traditions. Those who follow Binz’s guidelines will experience Scripture coming alive in prayer.” —George Martin, founder, God’s Word Today magazine and author, Bringing the Gospel of Mark to Life
