The Way: Prayer Journal

In this devotional resource, created to serve as a counter-balance to many contemporary devotionals, Shane revisits and reinterprets the ancient Christian practice of Lectio Divina (divine or spiritual reading) as a means of prayerfully engaging Scripture in order for each one of us to learn to discern what the Father desires to speak to us today.

Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me..” (John 10:27, ESV), yet so many Christians today abnegate their relationship with Jesus to their pastor, expecting them to hear what God wants us to know, and then pass on to us.

Each one of us is created to know the voice of Jesus Christ (which requires training and practice), and to respond to Him- which is the beginning of relationship. In 31 identical sessions for each day of the month, with some guidance throughout, you will begin to be able to discern how, when, and what the LORD is speaking to you as you grow in a trusting relationship with Him.

Shane explores the question, ‘What does life lived to it’s fullest look like for me?’ In other words, ‘How can I offer all that I am and have (intellect, health, relationships, resources, and influence) for God’s glory and the good of the world?’ 

Building on the Christian monastic tradition, and specifically St. Benedict’s Rule of Life for his intentional Christian communities of the past, Shane explores what a contemporary iteration of an intentional, engaged life in the way of Jesus could look like.

A life of real freedom and fullness, breadth and depth - rooted in healthy relationship with Our Father and others- just like we were created for.
