Lectio Divina & Scripture Study - The Inner Life - June 30, 2026

The Inner Life

Fr. Chris Walsh joins to discuss meditating on Sacred Scripture with Lectio Divina. * (6:53) How do I get started with Lectio Divina and where is a good setting or place to practice it?   * Break 1   * (32:22) Lucy - Reading the Psalms has helped me.   * (37:10) Dale - Today's Magnificat has a meditation from a saint in the 400's. He goes through analysis of Lectio Divina in today's gospel.   * (38:32) Rob - I'm part of a group that meets weekly to review the Sunday Gospel as Lectio Divina. We have been doing this for 20 years.   * (42:05) Rick - I am a deacon and the practice you are talking about is wonderful. I do it myself. I teach homiletics. Also, I tend to be a more visual person. Contemplating great artwork is a good thing to do as well.   * Father Chris Walsh recommends In Conversation with God by Francis Fernandez-Carvajal, The Catechism of The Catholic Church, the writings of the Saints and even Jesus of Nazareth by Pope Benedict 16 for Lectio Divina.
