THE LIVING WORD: USING IGNATIAN CONTEMPLATION This is an excellent video, which is highly recommended. Fr. James Martin, SJ uses the bible story of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes to illustrate how one can use Ignatian Contemplation to enrich their prayerful experience of reading the bible. This video is part of America Magazines launch of “The Living Word: Scripture in the Life of the Church,” a two-year, multi-platform project in collaboration with the American Bible Society aimed at promoting deeper engagement with the Bible. Editor-in-Chief Matt Malone, S.J., writes that this project represents “two firsts” for the publication: “It is the first time America has undertaken such an ambitious program of content devoted to a single subject,” and the first extensive partnership “with an interdenominational Christian ministry that has been engaging people with God’s word for nearly 200 years.” 2015 marks the 50th anniversary of Dei Verbum: The Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation, the groundbreaking document of the Second Vatican Council, and while the church has been greatly enriched by the fruits of modern biblical criticism in the intervening decades, new challenges and opportunities have also emerged. This is a very exciting opportunity for Catholics to engage the bible. We will keep you posted on this program. youtube/watch?v=Cw1ZXdBtCug#t=208
