A Fundamental Step

As fundamental a step as we can take ... is learning to meditate

on Scripture—learning first to hear God's word, and let it

inform and take root in us. This may be extremely difficult, for

the churches have no courses on meditation, despite the fact that

it is an art that must be learned from those who have mastered

and despite the fact that the supreme task of the church is to

listen to the Word of God.
