Cast the First Stone

“Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”  And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground.

In John 8:2-11, the scribes and Pharisees bring to Jesus a woman who has been caught in the act of adultery, to test Jesus’ interpretation of the law. Find your favourite spot for prayer, grab your journal, and sit deeply with yourself and the Lord for 20 minutes.

Contemplative at Home offers a guided prayer experience drawing on Ignatian spirituality and Lectio Divina.

John 8:2-11 is read from the NRSV

Contemplative at Home offers guided meditative prayer – space to slow down and listen to the truth that is being born out of God’s love for you today – drawing on Ignatian spirituality and at times, Lectio Divina.

  1. Thank you so much Lissie! Each time you post a new prayer it’s like receiving a precious gift – I save it for a special time in the week when I can unwrap it and enjoy it to the full ?? I appreciate all the time, preparation and prayer that you give to it and want you to know that God speaks so clearly through you.
    I want everyone I know to enjoy it too so the link has gone to family in Austria and friends in Australia…and I’m just about to send it to an American friend who will be living in Germany!
    Thank you again! Yolanda xx

I'd love to hear from you!
