Conversing with God in Lent by Stephen J. Binz
Want an interactive Lenten experience this year? Then take a look at Conversing with God in Lent by Stephen J. Binz. While many books comment on Sunday Mass readings for Lent, he invites and shows readers how to pray and contemplate them through the ancient spiritual practice called, 'Lectio divina.' This practice assists us in hearing God's message inside the words of Scripture. The second chapter of Conversing with God in Lent instructs the reader of how to practice Lectio divina and promises to take your heart into a new interaction with beloved scriptures.Conversing with God in Lent includes Lectio divina for Sundays in Lent for Cycles A, B, and C which include the five Sundays and Palm Sunday. Recently, Pope Benedict XVI and a Synod of Bishops recommended that lay people pray with the Scriptures using this ancient practice. After including the Mass reading for each Sunday with the complete text of the reading, Conversing with God in Lent>/I> leads readers into the five steps of the Lectio divina experience: reading, meditation, prayer, contemplation, and action. Enrich this sacred season and enter Eastertime with joy.
