Daily Lectio Divina: Prayer and Rest

Daily Lectio Divina: Prayer and Rest

Repost of Episode 141

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re using selected readings from Henri Nouwen‘s book The Way of the Heart: Connecting with God through Prayer, Wisdom, and Silence. This week we’re reading from the chapter on Prayer.

The literal translation of the words “pray always” is “come to rest.” The Greek word for rest is hesychia…The prayer of the hesychasts is a prayer of rest…a rest in God in the midst of a very intense daily struggle….The prayer of the hesychasts is a prayer of the heart.

Daily Lectio Divina: Dwelling in the mountains #5

Repost of Episode 381

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re starting a new series on the ancient form of Chinese poetry called shan-shui, or Rivers-and-Mountains, using selections from The Mountain Poems of Hsieh Ling-yun.  Today we’re using a selection from “Dwelling in the mountains #5.”

I devoted myself to simplicity and returned to it all,

left that workaday life for this wisdom of wandering,
for this wilderness of rivers-and-mountains clarity.

While our household recovers from a bout of the flu, please enjoy this randomized handful of episodes from prior series. We’ll be back with more of Isaiah 28 just as soon as I’ve recovered enough to return to recording.

Repost of Episode 594

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Inner Journey using a selection from “The Journey” by American poet Mary Oliver.

…But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world…
