It is easy to learn lectio
With a text about learning to detach, host Jean Kelly introduces her approach to lectio divina, a 4-step process of reading as a form of prayer.
Jean Kelly believes in the power of stories, both hers and others, to give hope, build faith, and improve communities. She teaches writing at a university in central Ohio. The ancient practice of lectio divina has saved her from several destructive and co-dependent relationships by offering easy access to peace of mind.
