Lectio Divina of the Gospels

Lectio Divina of the Gospels (for the liturgical year 2023-2024) takes the reader through the traditional process of lectio divina, with reading, meditation, prayer, and contemplation, focused on the Gospel for each Sunday and major feast day.

A unique guide is offered for each Gospel reading to help explore the sacred texts with greater attention and to allow the Word to permeate one's mind and imagination more deeply. Each week's lectio divina includes space for writing out reflections, thoughts, and prayers.

The book accompanies the reader through a year of praying with the Gospels for Sundays and major feasts, beginning with the first Sunday of Advent on December 3, 2023, through the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe on November 24, 2024.

This lectio divina prayer guide can be used for personal meditation, as a tool for family prayer, and for parish small-group reflections on the Sunday Gospel.
