Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, believed that we find God in the rough and tumble of everyday life. This gives Ignatian spirituality a special appeal to Christians of every tradition today. This book is an accessible but authoritative guide to the Ignatian spiritual tradition. The author draws on the latest scholarship to reveal the context and intentions of the original texts, relating them to the needs and concerns of our own times without any loss to their richness and power.
