Companions in Christ :The Way of Scripture is a small-group resource designed to help participants explore the nature of scripture and the ancient, time-tested practice of lectio divina. This is no a Bible study, nor is it designed for persons new to Christian faith, who may need a good Bible study to provide a solid foundation for the newly gained beliefs. Rather, The Way of Scripture is intended for committed Christians who are serious about adventuring into greateer spiritual depths with God's Word. This resource has seven weeks of readings and daily excercises. Group meetings are eight weeks, including the preparatory meeting.

Christians serious about venturing into greater spiritual depths with God’s Word will welcome The Way of Scripture, the ninth title in the Companions in Christ series. Employing the ancient, time-tested practice of praying the scriptures, this resource is designed for an eight-week small-group commitment. Between the weekly meetings, participants maintain a journal as they complete readings and daily exercises. However, this is much more than a Bible study! Through this process, participants consider the Bible as “the Word-become-text.” The journey encourages participants to set aside preconceived notions about the Bible, worries of the day, and tendencies to intellectualize, in order to open themselves to receive what God desires to share with them. The ultimate goal is to bring believers “into a continually transforming encounter with God, so that the Word might become flesh in [them] for the sake of the world God loves so much.”
The author is well-known for his previous books and for his teaching and leadership. He lectures at the Academy for Spiritual Formation. M. Robert Mulholland Jr. (Th.D., Harvard) is professor of New Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. He is the author of several books, including Shaped by the Word (Upper Room Books), Revelation (Zondervan), and Invitation to a Journey (IVP).
