Summary: Inspiring at home retreat
Review: If you have been looking for a way to practice lectio divina and pray with the scriptures, this is the best book for you. Set up in a retreat format, each day suggests a short reading and song line to keep you focused throughout the day. The guidelines for contemplation, meditation, and journaling are perfect for those needing help getting started. She also shares her own journaling and prayers for examples. This book was the inspiration that I needed to examine myself and God's teachings truthfully and with the help of a wonderful spirtiual leader. It also provides ways to use the book in a group retreat.
