In this episode, I share a simple sequence you can use as a Sacred Reading practice on your own or in a group. The text I've chosen is the first Psalm from the Christian and Jewish scriptures, one of the great Wisdom documents of the world. If you would prefer a secular, non-religious text, I will offer that in the next episode in two weeks. Please visit sacredreading.org for information about free online meetings you can join, to practice with me and others.
What is the practice of sacred reading? This episode offers a brief overview of the origins and form of the practice, which is rooted in the monastic tradition of lectio divina. The four movements or steps of the practice are described: read, reflect, respond, and rest, and some suggestions and resources for further exploration are given.For free online meetings exploring sacred reading with others, guided by Lory Widmer Hess, visit sacredreading.org.
