Kathleen Cahalan’s Lectio Divina is AMAZING! Completely impacted me in a positive way by giving me a daily practice to focus on my spiritual life each morning.

A practice that increases peace of mind, positivity, stress-reducing. Developing the spiritual side of you. A lot of people aren’t doing church – and I’m not saying this is a total replacement for church - but it’s something you can do that serves a purpose of drawing you closer to God - however you define God.

Kathleen Cahalan, Ph.D

Kathleen A. Cahalan is professor of practical theology at Saint John’s University School of Theology and Seminary and director of the Collegeville Institute Seminars, a collaborative, interdisciplinary, and ecumenical research project that includes seminars on vocation across the lifespan, vocation and faith in the professions, and interfaith perspectives on vocation.

As we read the Scripture in our Lectio practice, we come to realize that the Scripture is like a mirror: we see ourselves in it. Prayer is not just words we say. It's a way to open our whole selves, our whole life to God.
