The links below lead to topics for reading within the “Augustinian ethos”. We suggest they may also be used within the model of lectio divina. [Quoting from this link, lectio divina is “A very ancient art, practiced at one time by all Christians, - a slow, contemplative praying of the Scriptures which enables the Bible, the Word of God, to become a means of union with God”]. Reading these texts and contemplating each section in a similar manner will enable a richer and deeper understanding of the Augustinian union with today's world.

 

Please note: All the topics are available in Acrobat Reader format (.pdf), to which links have been made. If you don't have Adobe Acrobat Reader there is a link at the bottom of this page which will take you to the Adobe web site page for a FREE download.
