Lecto Divina: An Ancient Prayer That is Ever New

What is lectio divina? Is it Bible study? Spiritual reading? Prayer? Or all three? Is it only for "religious" people or can it be practiced by anyone. These are just a few of the many questions that this small volume seeks to address in a down-to-earth and very practical way by presenting, in an easy-to-read and systematic way the "meaning" and the "steps" involved. These include ways of listening to and interpreting the biblical text, taking the message to one's heart, sharing it with others, and finally witnessing to the word of God as a committed Christian.
