Prayer: Scripture Meditation/Imaginative Prayer

Let's talk about Lent and then meditate on scripture together! This episode uses imaginative prayer, which is a beautiful way to dive deeper into a narrative passage of the Bible and pick up on details you may have missed in a simple reading. If you want to do more imaginative prayer on your own and would like a guide, check out this website: https://campusministry.nd.edu/pray/ways-to-pray/imaginative-prayer-with-scripture/ Sometimes this type of imaginative prayer is called Lectio Divina, but there is also another form of Lectio Divina where you read a part of scripture several times and allow it to affect you deeper each time. This can be used with passages that aren't necessarily narrative, like Psalms, verses from epistles of the New Testament, or other verses from the Bible.
