The Jesuit's Guide... to (Almost) Everything. A Spirituality for Everyday Life

A guide to the spiritual life suitable for everyone, free of frills and able to speak in simple, engaging language: The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything is inspired by the life and work of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus. Centered on the Ignatian concept of “finding God in all things,” J. Martin’s book speaks to us about relationships, money, work, prayer, and choices (in other words, about... almost our entire lives), combining seriousness with an often irresistible sense of humor that has made this author beloved both in America and throughout the Jesuit world (Pope Francis himself holds him in high regard). Full of examples and anecdotes drawn from the author’s own autobiography, as well as from the lives of the saints of the Society of Jesus, it belongs among the great works of spirituality that speak to the women and men of today. A book that teaches those who have the patience (and the serene joy) to read it “how to seek God in the things and people surrounding our lives (children, husbands, wives, friends, grandparents, grandchildren, coworkers, enemies...)” but above all how “God seeks us” through every event and every encounter that comes our way.
