Session 6: The Word of God
Previous Session | Session List | Next Session |
This session focuses on the part of the Lord's Prayer where we ask for things: Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who tresspass against us. This session focuses on how God feeds us, both physically and spiritually. Through our parents he provides our basic needs. The scriptures and sacraments give us spiritual nourishment. But we have to do our part to receive those gifts. The session includes a prayerful method, Lectio Divina (divine reading) to consider scripture to help us tune in to God's message to us through interior revelation. Time is given to allow the group to practices lectio divina in small groups. The session ends with the students leading prayer.
First presented: St Paul Catholic Church, Damascus, MD; 2009-2010.
