Lectio divina is Latin for divine reading. The Lectio Divina for Youth books are Bible studies that call students to slow down, read Scripture, meditate on it, and prayerfully respond as they listen to God through His Word. These powerful books expand on the successful Barefoot Ministries' Ancient Faith Series. They work perfectly with either small groups or individual Bible study.Each Lection Divina for Youth Bible study incorporates the following approach:Reading (Lectio). Quieting ourselves prior to reading the Word.Meditation (Meditatio). We dig deep and explore the meaning of the Bible passage.Prayer (Oratio). We respond to God through praise, thanksgiving, confession, and agreement.Contemplation (Contemplatio). We come to a place where we rest in the presence of God and receive what He has said to us.Each chapter ends with a set of group study questions. Questions are designed for students to think about and discuss what it means to live out the Word in their community.Revelation: Lectio Divina for Youth takes students through the Apostle John's Revelation. Readers will meditate on John's prophetic vision, seeking understanding and wisdom as they listen to God's voice through this fascination block of Scripture.Moretz, Jim is the author of 'Listening for God through Mark', published 2007 under ISBN 9780834150157 and ISBN 0834150158.
