Prayer Walking

“For the believer the grace and demand of God are mediated through the concrete situation.” This one-hour workshop will explore the physical practice of walking as a concrete practice of spiritual devotion to our Lord. We will consider tools for praying with, though, and for places along our path, and postures of being oriented to our God as we walk our city’s streets, our park’s paths, our countries’ lanes: this Biblical landscape of life.

Music and Singing in Online Prayer Rooms

The Apostle Paul instructs the church to “address one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart" (Ephesians 5:19). In this workshop, we will explore ways to incorporate music and singing into online prayer services. We will review best practices in proctoring worship videos, spotlighting solo musicians, conducting group singing, leading liturgical readings, and creating Bible songs.

Lectio Divina: Learning to
Pray the Scriptures

Lectio Divina (“sacred reading”) is the ancient practice of reading the Scriptures in a meditative fashion as a guide for prayer. Developed by Benedictine monastic communities in the Middle Ages, Lectio Divina is a rich resource for prayer across many Christian traditions. This workshop will survey the biblical foundations for Lectio Divina as well as techniques for this method of prayer. Following this workshop, students will be prepared to implement Lectio Divina in personal prayer and in corporate prayer.
