After graduating from Harvard College with a degree in English Literature and the Comparative Study of Religion, Neal Tew spent three years in a monastery.

The lessons he learned there - compiled in the book, The Gospel Life - continue to shape his life as husband, father and working professional. The monastic practice of Lectio Divina - prayerful meditation on Scripture - was one of the great treasures he discovered there.

In this podcast, Neal shares the fruits of this practice from the perspective of a non-monk. He hopes to encourage others to take up this ancient wisdom.
