Absolutely a great book
There is nothing “mystical” about this book. It offers some very practical ways to meditate on God’s Word. I loved the examples and personal stories that were included.

Yes! I shall meditate on Scripture!
I am glad I read this book at the beginning of the year.In 2020, our pastor, Chad Williams, preached on Psalm 1 and Joshua 1. He was encouraging our congregation to begin a practice of Biblical meditation. He suggested this book for further instruction on the subject.It is 2021. I am grateful for having read this book. It gently encourages you by showing you Why and How to meditate.Biblical meditation was practiced by characters in the Old and New Testament. We, Christians, will grow closer to God in the meditation and observance of His Spirit-breathed Scripture.Robert J. Morgan spends about half of the book giving the WHY of Biblical meditation, its spiritual benefits as well as emotional, intellectual, and physical. Sprinkled liberally throughout are "tips" on how to meditate on Scripture.The second half of the book is where Morgan goes practical, teaching us the How, and even provides us with guided meditation readings in the appendix.There is no one valid way to meditate, and all practices are beneficial: TM, Zen, yoga, vipassana (my own personal practice), but if you're a Christian and you're uncomfortable with Eastern or New Age-leaning practices, then Morgan's book is for you.On a personal note, I have begun incorporating Biblical meditation as described in this small volume, and it is helping me a lot right now as three of my family members are in the hospital due to covid-19.Be blessed!

The search is over - finally
I have long been wanting to do meditation practically but found very little help from the many books (even those of famous authors) and articles written. This book stands out distinctively from the rest which makes it very worth buying and reading. It offers me much on HOW to meditate. Simple tips offered throughout the book and at the end of it there are useful & specific guides to meditate on specific scriptures. I learn much and I am inspired to do it. Best of all, I can straight away start practising on the HOW to meditate on God's word. I sense author's sincere heart desires to equip people to really get into meditation that gives so many benefits.Thank You Holy Spirit for making me seek out this valuable key and answering me using this gem!

Great Book Explaining Christian Meditation
This is an easy and quick read that gives detailed explanation about the practice of Christian meditation. If you are confused, like I was, by the modern Eastern religious practices and how that compares to what the Bible calls meditation, then this book is for you.

You will fall back in love with your bible
I have read a number of books recently about meditating on scripture. Some are too vague, some are too technical, some tell you a whole loaf of history you might not be that interesting. Some of those books have their place.If you want to just start meditating on the words in your bible then this book will lead you in a conversational way to be doing exactly that.Instead of a detailed instruction manual this is a book of experiences. It makes it easy to understand what biblical meditation is, why you would want to do it and how you can easily go about it. At the end there are are a while bunch of verses set aside that you can start with.Even whilst you are reading this book you will find that you are meditating on scripture. You will fall back in love with your bible.

Exactly what I needed
I started reading this book, slowly at first. I've wanted to start meditation for a number of years but with the current hype wanted to be sure I was doing so in a way the honored my beliefs. And then it clicked and I'm so thankful to have this resource!

a lot of rhetoric, not a lot of insruction
I am only half way tbrough and i am frustrated. ill save you some time. read your bible, memorize pasaages, & think on them regularly.I hate that i have yet to find a modern christian writer that ca help me learn to master my mind. I still have to turn to bhudist meditation teachings to learn useful techniques and then apply them to scripture.im not sure if i will finish the book. i havea feeling brother Lawrence will more wisdom for me.
