Lectio Divina: Studying the Bible, Falling in Love with Jesus the Living Word - Living Faith - Home & Family - Catholic Online

Excerpt:
The Bible is at the heart of the Churches worship, faith and life. It is the "Book of the Church." Christianity is not about "me and Jesus" but me in Jesus. Through Baptism we come to live in His Body, the Church. When God chose to reveal Himself He did not throw a book out of heaven. Rather, the Word made Flesh. Through the Incarnation - which includes the entirety of the life, suffering, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ- a new creation began. We are now incorporated into Christ when we are baptized into His Church and we enter into the lived experience of that new Creation.
