Inspiring Practices

My friend Erin Brogdon and I created some resources for spiritual practices for the 2023 Lectureship at Harding University.

For each of the sessions, we created guided spiritual practices. For each of these, there’s a meditative audio recording and a self-guided text version available. There are also links at the bottom of the page here for other resources we hope you’ll find useful!

Audio Meditations

Text-Based Meditations

If you’d rather go at your own pace, (or play your own music, or have none!), here are the same practices, but in a text-based format.

Examen Meditation

Sabbath Meditation

Breathing the Psalms

Lectio Divina

REsources

We’ve compiled some digital resources on spiritual practices.

Prayer Resource Page

The document linked above is Steven’s growing Prayer Resource depot. It has texts, quotes, a bibliography and more!

Breathing the Psalms

This document is a collection of verses from the Psalms that can be used as breath prayers. It certainly isn’t exhaustive, and I’d encourage you to build your own list over time!

A Short Guide to Prayer

This is a simple, printable single page that can help individuals and groups think about their on-ramps to prayer. (Includes a monthly chart for the psalms).
