Guided Contemplative Practice 7 | Luke 19:28–44

Welcome to this week's contemplative audio: The King Comes in Peace. In Luke 19:28–44 we follow Jesus into Jerusalem—welcomed with cries of praise, riding on a borrowed donkey, and moved to weep for the city.
Over five gentle movements—rest and attend, listen, notice, be read, and respond—we pause with the scripture to let the living Word shape our imagination, reveal the character of the King, and surface where we resist the way of peace.
As you listen, carry the questions of peace-making into your day: Where might God invite you to practice shalom in ordinary places? Pray, receive, and walk on with a heart set alight.
