Lectio divina, or divine reading, is the ancient Christian practice of communicating with God through the reading and study of Scripture. The Lectio Divina Bible Studies build on this time-honored tradition, inviting readers to listen to God as they read his word. The approach is built around eight steps, lectio, meditation, oratio, contemplation, silencio, incarnation, epitome, and praeparatio–all designed to help the reader slow down, read Scripture, meditate upon it, and prayerfully respond to God’s Word.
Each Lectio Divina Study is designed around these elements:
Summary–a brief overview of the session
Silence–a time of quieting oneself before reading the Word
Preparation–focusing the mind on the central theme of the text
Reading–carefully reading a passage of Scripture
Meditation–exploring the meaning of the Bible passage
Contemplation–yielding oneself to God’s will
Prayer–expressing praise, thanksgiving, confession, or agreement to God
Incarnation–resolving to act on the message of Scripture

Great Divorce
$17.99C.S. Lewis takes us on a profound journey through both heaven and hell in this engaging allegorical tale. Using his extraordinary descriptive powers, Lewis introduces us to supernatural beings who will change the way we think about good and evil. In The Great Divorce C.S. Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer, in a dream, finds himself in a bus which travels between Hell and Heaven. This is the starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil which takes issue with William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.
