Ignatius of Loyola

B.J. Richardson's review

Dec 30, 2017

really liked it

This is a book meant to be lived, not just read as one would normally read a book. Ignatius wrote the exercises as a manual for those on a spiritual retreat. It is not profound theology. It is not a literary masterpiece. It is a program for fine-tuning one's spiritual discipline so that they may, in turn, return to the world and live a godlier life. Don't just read this book, practice it.
