Synopsis
Happy and blessed. That’s what the Bible says marks the lives of those who meditate on the Bible. Bible meditation is a way of relating to God while pondering Scripture. In this book, you will see what Bible meditation involves and what sets this type of meditation apart from other forms of meditation. Biblical meditation is delight-driven contemplation of Scripture with a receptive heart in the presence of Christ to foster our love of God and others. When you meditate on the Bible, you can enjoy the company of Jesus. Like Mary, “who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said,” we listen to the voice of God, in God’s presence, through Scripture, to hear and obey and to experience God’s caress.
James C. Wilhoit taught at Wheaton College for four decades, primarily teaching courses on spiritual practices, including biblical meditation. He has seen firsthand how meditating on Scripture can be a means of receiving God’s restoring grace and renewing one’s thinking. He has written over a dozen books, including Spiritual Formation as if the Church Mattered(Baker) and, with Evan B. Howard, Discovering Lectio Divina: Bringing Scripture into Ordinary Life (IVP). He is an ordained Presbyterian minister (EPC) and serves as a spiritual director. (1300 characters and spaces)
