Alabaster Guided Meditations:
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Psalms

Lectio divina or divine reading describes an ancient Christian practice of reflecting on the Scriptures to slow down and draw close to God. Similarly, visio divina, or divine seeing, describes the practice of observing art as you pray and reflect on God’s Word. In these books, guided meditations are accompanied by beautiful photography to invite you to draw on the traditions of both lectio divina and visio divina and experience God’s Word anew.

Follow Me Curriculum for All Ages:
​Follow Jesus
Picture
Following Jesus is something all of us are called to do every day of our lives. Following Jesus is an invitation to discipleship, an ongoing practice that we accept again and again. This unit studies mostly New Testament passages from the Bible, asking what it means when we choose to follow Jesus with every decision we make. Learn how following Jesus translates to loving God and neighbor and bearing witness to God’s love and justice in our everyday world. Let this practice become the lens through which you see the world as you explore this unit, Follow Jesus.
