Praying with the Jesuits
From the founding of the Society of Jesus during the sixteenth-century Catholic Reformation up to our present time, Jesuits have been prolific producers of letters, theological writings, prayers and meditations, poetry, and visual art. The expression of this Ignatian spirituality, as it is known, is as varied as the vast army of soldiers of Christ who have followed the call of St. Ignatius over the centuries to evangelize and educate. In Praying with the Jesuits, Fr. Charles Healey, SJ, offers a wealth of resources that span time and space to bring the reader a never-failing fount of material for prayer and meditation. From the foundational Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, through the journals of the intrepid early missionaries to the New World, to the prayers and poems of Karl Rahner and Daniel Berrigan and the stunning photography of Michael Flecky, the reader can tap into this Jesuit Communion of Saints for ways to "find God in all things."
