An Antidote to Acedia
Happiness is living a virtuous life. Every person is seeking happiness and searching for a means to experience interior peace and calm. The speed of technology and the pace of life set us in motion to get things done and the time necessary to establish a personal relationship with Jesus slips away.
One name for this distraction is acedia or spiritual sloth which has quietly gripped our culture. For centuries an antidote to this sin has been lectio divina, an ancient practice of ‘being’ with the Word of God and conversing with Him.
The Life of Christ, Lectio Divina Journal will enable you to encounter Christ and to learn by personal experience that happiness is discovered in living virtuously as a disciple of Christ.
