Reading with God : Lectio Divina Paperback / softback
by Dom David Foster
Paperback / softback
Description
David Foster is a Benedictine Monk of Downside Abbey and chaplain to Downside School.
He has always been concerned to bring the riches of the monastic tradition to lay people as they struggle to live the Christian life in the modern world.
Lectio Divina or the art of spiritual reading is an art which is all but lost outside monastic communities.
But following St Benedict's opening command in his Rule to 'listen', attending to the word of God through the printed text is an art which needs to be rediscovered in a world in which we are surrounded by a cacophony of sound and noise.
David Foster has written a masterly guide to this art.
