Rhythms Retreat - Scriptures (Lectio Divina)

We have many ways to approach the Bible. There are times for study, memorization, and for reading-it-through-in-a-year. There is also a way to encounter God in the Scriptures through a slower, more meditative approach to forming our hearts versus only information for our minds. If you feel that reading the Bible has grown dull and lifeless, perhaps you are being invited into a new way of meeting God in the Scriptures. Lectio Divina (sacred reading) teaches us to approach the Word with expectancy - a prayer practice of dialogue with the God of the Bible. God desires to speak to you in a very personal and ongoing way. Let’s continue our series by cultivating our capacity to listen and respond.
