This book is the fruition of not only a long personal experience but also a teaching and sharing about this ancient way of prayer: lectio divina. The author presents a unique method of listening to God through the daily readings of the Bible. It gives a substantial nourishment to our friendship with Jesus. Whilst rooted in the living Tradition, this book is full of new intuitions with many practical insights that makes it a useful manual. No Christian who prays or who loves the Bible can ignore this teaching."I do not believe that a similar book exists on lectio divina. [...] your book is a catharsis for modern intelligence and at the same time a teaching that frees the reader from the "psyche" and its illusions. [...] The most terrible thing today is that souls are so thirsty for God, a thirst to meet him in prayer and to be touched by him. [...] We can read ample descriptions about the "border of the well", but in fact what we need is to quench the thirst. What is special about this book is that it teaches the reader how to get water out of the well." G. Solari This is the full book of the same author.
