This video course accompanies the Life of Christ Lectio Divina Journal. It includes guided Lectio Divina, audio recording of Gospel passages and reflections by priests, religious art commentary by Dr. Elizabeth Lev, and video testimonies on Scripture by Sisters and young adults.
Each Section is divided into 3 Segments
To aid you in unpacking the Scripture, various priests from around the world read the passage and offer commentary.
A renowned art historian (and certified Sommelier) Dr. Lev offers engaging commentary on these beautiful, rich treasures. She loves Rome—its history, art, cuisine, and people— and is happiest in its many churches and museums. She is the author of four books, has offered commentaries on art and the papacy for several television networks, and recently hosted an episode of BBC’s Heart and Soul on Leonardo da Vinci! Cheers!
All of us meet people who are just good — and they bring joy to us. For this segment, the Sisters and other disciples offer their own reflections on the Gospel and witness to us the joy of the Gospel.

While I do know how to practice Lectio Divina without the aid of this program, I find the lessons and questions extremely helpful in narrowing down the reading. Additionally, I find the artwork and explanations new and enlightening. Sometimes, when praying with scripture, my mind can wander into the tasks of the day despite my attempts to focus. Using this book aids me in the process of staying focused by looking at the next question and contemplating my answers. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in connecting with God on a more personal level through scripture and art.
