In this study, its purpose was to investigate the effect of Lectio divina following the flow of the Christian tradition to regulate emotions of Korean Church adolescents’ anxiety. This study confirmed the results as follows. First, as a result of homogeneity test between the experimental group and the control group, the sub-regions of anxiety experience were such that state anxiety and trait anger did not show significant difference statistically in scores. Second, as a result of analysis of the pre-post differences of anxiety experience between the control group and the experimental group, the average scores pre(M=2.80) -post(M=2.65) of the experimental group of state anxiety are relatively showed a significant difference compared to the average scores pre(M=2.80)-post(M=2.79) of the control group. And trait anxiety pre(2.79)-post(2.67) of the experimental group also showed relatively larger than the average scores pre(M=2.79)-post(M=2.78) of the control group. While a significant level of trait anxiety and state anxiety of the control group were meaningless, a significant level of state anxiety p <.01 and trait anxiety p <.01 showed statistically significant in the experimental group. In the above results, Lectio divina has been proven to be effective for the control of the emotions of adolescents’ anxiety.
