Praying with the Bible: Ignatian Meditation

As “Catholic Central: Praying With the Bible: Ignatian Meditation” illustrates, the technique called Ignatian Meditation – developed by St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuits -- can help readers go deeper into the Bible, using their imaginations to flesh out passages, especially stories in the Gospels. Just don’t get carried away.

Diving Deeper

  1. Think of your favorite story or historical event. Re-read a synopsis of the story or event. Try to picture yourself within the story. How would you respond if you were there? If it’s an historical event, would you you try to change history?
  2. Try the same as #1 above, this time with a favorite story from the Bible or a biblical story that you know well.
