Reconciling the Heart to its Feast of Losses

Reconciling the Heart to its Feast of Losses: Poetry as a Means of Grace Presented by Stan Scott, University of Maine

I am excited to have my students practice lectio divina, both as readers and as writers. I think it will be most helpful for them to deepen as both! And for those of you who haven't read Stan's article in JAEPL (Vol 11, Winter 2005-06), I recommend it! --Helen Walker
