This book is for all those attracted to the way St. Francis & St. Clare of Assisi followed Jesus. All of us are called to make the Gospel an integral part of our lives, going from Gospel to Life and from Life to Gospel. Our Rule incorporates the very essence of the Gospel itself. We were taught to EVERY DAY READ the Bible, especially the Gospel, plus one paragraph from our Holy Rule. But deep commitment does not occur by a mere cursory reading of the Gospels or Rule. But here is a 2,000 year old way to truly pray Scripture and our Holy Rule; it’s called “Lectio Divina”,. aptly described as “Prayerful Reading.” The four steps are simply: Read, Reflect, Respond, and Receive/Resolve. Our St. Bonaventure, O.F.M., has taken the second step much deeper by asking us to REFLECT first on the literal meaning and then the 3 spiritual meanings as they affect our faith, morals, & eternal destiny.
