[TIME CHANGE] Next Lectio Divina Online is Sunday Evening, February 2nd (RSVP)
Lectio Divina Online Event
“Please tell me you’re going to keep doing this.”
That was the first thing said after we ended our initial Lectio Divina Online session.
Yes, I’m continuing to do it.
Join Us for an Ancient Spiritual Exercise that Helps You Discover Who You are Truly Meant to Be
I will host Lectio Divina Online again on this upcoming Sunday at 2:00 pm (CST). You will need to RSVP by 1:00 pm to attend.
Here’s your chance to engage in an ancient contemplative discipline designed to help you reconnect to your Divine Ground and enhance your sense of spiritual connection.
So you know what to expect, this video describes the practice.
This is a FREE online video event over Google Meet.
Save the Date
Day: Sunday, February 2, 2024
Time: 2:00–2:40 pm (CST)
Once you RSVP (which is required to attend), you will receive a link to the online room in your email (you may have to check your spam folder). When it’s time to start, click the link to “knock,” and I will let you in.
While this is a video event, you do not have to turn on your video if you do not want to.
I want this event to be an opportunity for everybody attending to meet each other and build relationships. So, once we wrap up around 2:40 pm, I’ll stay for a while longer for some casual conversation.
If you have questions, feel free to reply to this email and ask. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
Please keep in mind that everyone attending will be expected to uphold the ECF Covenant for a Consecrating Community, which you can find below.
I hope to see many of you there.
I look forward to introducing you to one of my favorite spiritual practices!
Peace, Bo
The Evolving Christian Faith Network
ECF Covenant for A Consecrating Community
As we gather, we recognize that the primary purpose of this community is to nurture, empower, and unleash progressive Christians so that they can embrace their call to make the world a more loving place in their own way.
We commit ourselves to keeping this a safe space. Everyone needs to be heard. We will work toward granting people the appropriate time and space to speak their truth as they feel comfortable.
We commit ourselves to healthy boundaries in our conversations. No one should demand access to another's spiritual life. We will not pressure anyone to say more than they feel they need to or should.
We commit ourselves to listening for the wisdom that comes through the truth of the other. Creative insight happens in the space between us—the space that invites us to move beyond the edges of who we are.
We commit to healthy dialogue, especially during disagreements. We will slow things down and intentionally choose our words so we can continue to speak from our truth in love and facilitate a strong sense of community.
We commit to being a community of justice. We know some ideologies and theologies are harmful to human well-being. We resist them as we make space for, protect, and privilege the voices of the marginalized in our midst.
We commit to being a community of grace. We know people will transgress. We will deal with these transgressions as gracefully as possible. We also realize that this community is not for everyone. For those for whom it is meant, we offer time and guidance to adjust to appropriate behavioral norms.
Joining together, sharing together, working together, may we become a community of divine hope for the future.
