Lectio divina (translated
“divine [or sacred] reading”) is an approach to the Scriptures that sets
us up to listen for the word of God spoken to us in the present moment.
Lectio divina is a practice of divine reading that dates back to the
early mothers and fathers of the Christian faith. Referring to the
material being read and the method itself, the practice of lectio divina
is rooted in the belief that through the presence of the Holy Spirit,
the Scriptures are indeed alive and active as we engage them for
spiritual transformation (Hebrews 4:12).
