The Book of Sacred Reading Practices - Jeff Campbell - Bog

You can get past preconceptions, assumptions, and prejudices and read from a place of deep authority. By Inviting the Divine into the process of interpreting what a text means for you right here and right now, you can come to a new understanding and appreciation of the books which are most important. This book provides several easy-to-follow, step-by-step approaches to a pair of well-loved spiritual exercises: Lectio Divina, which invites God to help the reader notice the important aspects of the text, and Holy Imagining, which uses sensory information to help root the reader in the events being read about. These practices are great entry points into the world of contemplative activities, or powerful tools in an evolving spiritual practice.
