Are you reading your Bible but feeling like you're just going through the motions? Like gulping food without tasting it? There's a better way.
In this episode, I lead you through a Lectio Divina—sacred reading—practice that transforms your time in Scripture from boring obligation to intimate encounter. I'll walk you through exactly how to do it, using Habakkuk 3:19 as our example text, and show you why slowing down to really connect with God's Word is like a probiotic for your soul.
You'll learn how to move beyond just reading for information to actually meditating on truth, speaking honestly with God about what you're feeling, contemplating transformation, and carrying a word or phrase with you throughout your day. I even share my own Lectio session so you can see what this looks like in real life.
Whether you have 2 minutes or 15, this practice will help you make yourself available to hear what God wants to say to you personally through His Word.
