Season 2 Episode 62- Lectio Divina on Luke 6:27-35 with Neil

/

Dear friends,

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 62 of the podcast.

Today’s meditation is a Lectio Divina on Luke 6:27-35 with Neil.

* Note, this meditation was one of the ones we guided at a music festival here in Thailand, so there will be more background noise than usual!

First, Neil will offer some exercises to bring your mind into a quiet space, and second, guide you through the meditation on the verses with lots of space and silence for contemplation.

For the third part, we encourage you to process your meditation by sharing your experience and thoughts if you are meditating with others, or journaling or recording your experience in some way if you are meditating on your own. Enjoy!

Season 2 Episode 44- From the Archives- Lectio Divina on John 15:1-4 with Naomi

/

Dear friends,

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 44 of the podcast.

We’re pulling from the archives again today with this lectio divina on John 15: 4-10 with Naomi, first published in March of 2019. Next week we’ll be back with a new episode, now that we are back at Shekina Garden for the season.

Here’s what to expect in this episode:

* Our friends at another Shekina location in Asia did the intro today! Well, it’s Ro, who you know, and our dear friend Laura. They chat about recording on a windy beach, art meditation, bird watching, and playing hide and seek.

* Naomi guides a Lectio Divina on John 15: 4-10, from The Message paraphrase of the Bible. (If you want to skip to this, it’s at 05:40, but don’t skip the introduction, because you’ll never know what kind of birds Laura saw when she was birdwatching with Chinua and that mystery will haunt you!)

For the third part, we encourage you to process your meditation by sharing your experience and thoughts if you are meditating with others, or journaling or recording your experience in some way if you are meditating on your own. Enjoy!
