Bible Reading -LectioDivina To proclaim the good news, set the captives free etc • LectioDivina - A way of reading Scripture: • Listening for Christ the Word • 1) Reading: One person reads aloud the passage of scripture, as others listen for the word or phrase that is especially meaningful for them. • 2) Silence for two minutes. Each person hears and silently repeats a word or a phrase that has attracted them. • 3) Sharing aloud each may make a single sentence statement of the word or phrase that has attracted them. No elaboration. • How Christ the Word speaks to me • 4) Second Reading of the same passage by another person. • 5) Silence for two minutes reflecting on “How does the content of this reading touch my life today?” • 6) Sharingaloud, briefly, beginning “I hear...” or “I see...” • What Christ the Word is inviting me to do • 7) Third Reading of same passage by another person. • 8) Silence for two minutes reflecting on “I believe that God wants me to be or do today/during this camp?” • 9) Sharingaloud the result of each person’s reflection. Be especially aware of what is shared by the person on your right. • 10) After sharing, in turn, pray for the person on your right • Important note. Anyone may say “pass” at any time. If instead of sharing with the group you prefer to pray silently, simply state this aloud and conclude your silent prayer with ‘Amen’ • Poster • 11) Write down some of the significant words or phrases used during your reflection and discuss images that come to mind • 12) As a group create a poster using these images around the theme of the module you are exploring at this session, e.g. Telling Our Story
Luke 4:13 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, Because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, To release the oppressed, To proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour. “
