Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() ![]() My wife and I read this devotional during the evenings of Lent. We sort of petered out at the end but I did enjoy the late Basil Pennington's reflections on the life of Christ. Each of the entries in this book are based on Lectio Divinas Pennington did on passages from the life of Christ. They cover the whole arc of Jesus' earthly life. The reflections are presented under three categories: Beginnings, Teachings and Healings, and Passion & Resurrection. For the most part Pennington's reflections are rather great and I gleaned some insights and learned to see particular scriptures in a different way. Though there is a certain unevenness to these. My wife and I read and let the reflections guide are evening prayers. But I found sometimes the reflections merely explicated Pennington's own views rather than helped us delve into the truth of the gospel. Thankfully some chapters were more nourishing than that. Also occasionally these reflections seem directed specifically to fellow monks (but not always) so adjustments have to be made on how you read this. Still it was good. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
A Hindu ashram. A Buddhist meditation center. A Cistercian monastery. Today, thousands of people, hungry to live more balanced and spiritually centered lives, flock to these sources of ancient wisdom. According to M. Basil Pennington, one of the spiritual masters of our age, seekers who visit his monastery want to know the Christian method of transformation. He replies that it is lectio divina--an ancient practice of sacred reading. As Pennington explains, "If each day a word of the Lord can truly come alive for us and can form our mind and heart, we will have that mind of Christ." This Book presents forty Scripture passages from the life of Christ, paired with a compelling meditation by Basil Pennington. By sharing the fruits of his own lectio, Pennington provides an illuminating daily guide to "seeking his mind." Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
