Thanks for stopping by Lisa! And if anybody was in proximity to renewal it was surely Martin Luther — with his prayer life supporting the whole project.

Joy, I’m so grateful for your comment here. I agree that Luther’s approach to the Lord’s Prayer is akin to Lectio Divina. Both include ruminating on a biblical text, drawing out its goodness. On the other hand, Luther moves quickly to framing his own prayer according to the topics outlined in the Lord’s Prayer — rather than the various kinds of listening to the text a classic Lectio would emphasize.

Glad to know my book is on your wish list. Please do let me know your thoughts when you get it. Look’s like you’ve found me on Twitter (thanks!) and there is a contact page on my blog for sending an email.

Blessings,

Gary
