While Lectio Divina is a method of praying with scripture, Visio Divina (Latin for "divine seeing") is a method for praying with images or other media. Scripture shows us that imagery has been an important part of God's way of communicating with us. Ezekiel's vision of dry bones (Ezek 37:1-14 NASB), and Peter's dream on the rooftop (Acts 10), are just two instances of how images and prayer are vitally connected.
For this study we’ll be using art resources from the Sanctified Art Advent resource, How Does A Weary World Rejoice? Each week we’ll read two scripture passages, reflecting on the writing but also art inspired by it. It’s an opportunity to think about God’s word creatively and let God speak to us through the work of artists.
