Daftar Isi:
- The focus of this study is on researching the experience of God through Lectio Divina. In reading the Scriptures, humans realize that within those texts, God has addressed and spoken, leading to an experience of God. However, this encounter with God must be pursued diligently and faithfully. In order to understand the experience of God, this study is approached from a theological perspective. The purpose of the theological examination is that the author directs the fundamental view of Catholic faith, namely the spirituality of an individual as a Christian and the meaning of Lectio Divina. However, this research does not stop at theoretical thinking. The author continues this study phenomenologically. This research aims to understand the life experience of someone who directly undergoes an event. In order to understand these impacts, this study employs qualitative research methodology. The research subjects interviewed are ten individuals who are part of the St. Joseph's Parish in the Diocese of Malang. From this research, the author finds that the Scriptures are a means for humans to know and experience God. God is present and transforms each person's life for the better.
