Synopsis

"Lectio Matters" is a clear teaching from the Alexandrian School for catechumens (Didaskeleion) that is recommended by the Rule of Benedict. The current teachings on lectio divina are derivatives from the later Scholastic tradition summarized by Guigo II (d. 1188). This book retrieves the tradition that was in use by the Desert Elders who were foundational for the monastic rules. "Lectio Divina" is understood as a revelatory text that has many doors. Scripture is the hallowed point of entry but also God comes as God through the windows of personal experience and the powerfully pervasive "Book of Nature". "Lectio Matters" is for those who have encountered God through either or all of these revelatory texts and those who want to sustain their lectio into habits of a lifetime.
