Lectio: Clarity through Prayer

One of my favorite roles with our church has been as a lector, which means "one who reads" in Latin, and it involves getting to read one of the Sunday mass readings. I thought it would be fun to bring this to the podcast in a series called "Lectio," or "reading." Every Sunday mass, there are three readings: Old Testament, epistles and the gospel. I'll be syncing up episodes with the upcoming Sunday mass readings, so the week before mass you can be ruminating on one of the passages to come. While it's the priest who reads the gospel at mass, I chose to do the gospel reading for this particular Lectio episode. In addition to reading the passage, I'll also be doing some Bible study and reflection. Bible study and teaching was a big part of my job in full-time campus ministry before having kids, and it was one of my favorite parts. I'm really looking forward to weaving these passions into this podcast space. If you want to follow along with a Bible, the passage is Mark 1:29-39. Explore A Growing Home more: Instagram Blog Facebook
