Our Life with Scripture The Church earnestly calls Christians to reflect on and pray with Scripture. Reading, studying, and praying Sacred Scripture can make the most ordinary moments of life extraordinary. © Christopher Futcher / iStockphoto.com

Sacred Scripture and Morality Morality refers to the goodness or evil of human acts, attitudes, and values. Through free will, we can choose what is truly good. Reflection and prayer with Sacred Scripture direct us to true good. © karen roach / Shutterstock.com

God’s Word Lights Our Path Scripture directs us toward true happiness and teaches that the path of righteousness is not always easy. Praying with the Word of God helps us to recognize the morality of an act and to choose what is good. © Bill Florence / Shutterstock.com

Lectio Divina: Praying with Sacred Scripture Lectio divina means “divine reading.” It is a slow, contemplative praying of Sacred Scripture. It allows the Word of God to penetrate our hearts. © Allyson Kitts / Shutterstock.com

The Four Rungs of Lectio Divina lectio: attentive reading of a passage meditatio: reflecting on what God is trying to communicate to us oratio: letting our hearts speak to God in prayer contemplatio: resting in the presence of God © kao / Shutterstock.com

Lectio Divina Made Easy The best way to get comfortable with lectio divina is to practice. Keep a journal handy to write down something that touches your heart. © Sorin Popa / Shutterstock.com

A Way to Learn about God and Self At the heart of lectio divina is God, our Teacher. We are called to allow his Word to inform even the darkest corners of our lives. © Kozoriz Yuri / Shutterstock.com

The Stations of the Cross This devotion is rooted in the Scripture accounts of the Passion. When we meditate on Christ’s Passion and Death, we commemorate his sacrifice. © Zvonimir Atletic / Shutterstock.com

Praying the Rosary We recite five sets of ten Hail Marys. Each set is called a decade. Each new decade begins with one Lord’s Prayer and concludes with a Glory Be. We trace these prayers along a small chain of beads with a crucifix. © Duncan Andison / Shutterstock.com

The Mysteries of Christ’s life While praying the Rosary, we meditate on the mysteries of the life of Jesus. Each time we pray the Rosary, we dedicate it to a set of five mysteries. There are five Joyful, five Sorrowful, five Glorious, and five Luminous Mysteries. © Nancy Bauer / Shutterstock.com

Individual and Communal Prayer with Sacred Scripture We can pray on our own and also with others. When we gather as Christians, we are called to make Sacred Scripture the basis for our prayer. © Monkey Business Images / Shutterstock.com
