Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Journal to Gratitude invites you to join in the transformative spiritual journeys of those who have gone before you. The scriptural readings, journal notes and spiritually-reflective poems are organized around the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius. Be it 500 years ago when Ignatius, the layperson, wrote the Spiritual Exercises or today when you, the lay or religious person, experience the same prayer methodologies, a journey to gratitude awaits you. While there are numerous wonderful forms of prayer available to people, the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius are recognized as amongst the best for transforming our relationship with God and one another. The prayers and poetic reflections include popular authors like Thomas Merton, Telihard de Chardin S.J., M.L. West, Saint Augustine, Mary Oliver, and others. More importantly, the prayers and poetic reflections include every day authors who simply use journaling as a form of prayer. Larry Gillick S.J. introduces each of the Spiritual Exercise weeks. Without regard to advanced theology or literary degrees, people have been journaling their spiritual reflections with God for almost 3,500 years. Excellent prose was not their greatest strength. Being inspired by the Holy Spirit was their gift. The journaling done by the earliest biblical authors was an outgrowth of their effort to communicate with the God in their lives. Of the most commonly recognized 66 books in the Christian bible, the poetic Psalms are the largest. One of the beauties of writing down our humble efforts to communicate with God is that we can, and do, go back to them. Appreciate the Exercises. The Exercises are not a program or workshop, but a way of receiving life and living more freely what has been given to us. One does not actually make the Spiritual Exercises; rather the Exercises make the person a fuller receiver of her or his creation. Ignatian Spirituality flows from these Exercises into the personal lives and missions of those who do come face-to-face with Jesus and themselves. They will most probably set your heart on fire and help fill many other hearts with a feeling of gratitude. Accept this invitation The Exercises do transform. You do not have to be a saint before you start them. Ignatius of Loyola is a great model for a spiritual journey because he was not saintly when he started the Exercises. When you finish the exercises, you will not be concerned about being good enough. It is not about being perfect or imperfect. It is not about being saint or sinner. It is about accepting that we are all a little rascally, and all of us are made in the image and likeness of God. Journal To Gratitude can be used as an aide for daily prayer, for the novice or seasoned journalist, and for individual or group study of the Spiritual Exercises. Like the Spiritual Exercises themselves, it can be used by Catholics and non-Catholics alike, laypeople and the religious. Journal to Gratitude supports two non-profits. The book includes spiritual journaling by many authors over thousands of years. For the vast majority of these authors, their material reward rarely exceeded a meal or a place to sleep. The proceeds of this book are being donated to two Jesuit affiliated organizations that promote spiritual outreach and journaling. After expenses, all proceeds will be divided amongst: 1) Ignatian Associates, Milwaukee, Wisconsin and 2) Cristo Rey Jesuit High School, Minneapolis, Minnesota.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. So much of being Catholic has little to do with formal prayer or Mass or anything overtly religious. A good portion of living our faith is about how we respond to the challenges of everyday life. How do we draw on our relationship with God and the resources of our faith in crisis, confusion and loneliness, when faced with injustice, criticism or heartbreak? Faith, if it is to survive, must be relevant throughout all the seasons of our lives. Faith must be real every day, when life is exciting, when we are in chaos and even when life is predictable and ordinary. The witness of the Catholic tradition is that faith in Christ is all that and more. The key is to begin to see God in all things, great and small. That is the road to discovery. There we will encounter the holy as well as be confronted by great evil and sublime beauty. There we will find ourselves, beloved sons and daughters of God. A mix of wheat and weeds growing together, loved despite our limitations and invited into the great mission that is to be a saint in today's world. There's a Beer in My Handbag takes you on a journey deeper into the mystery of yourself as you endeavor to find your place with God. One part retreat, two parts theology, three parts testimony, this collection of everyday reflections uncovers eternity at every turn. Whether stranded at an airport or attending Easter Mass in a cemetery, finding meaning in dirty diapers and dishes or contemplating the beauties of the Catholic world, Dave invites readers to see the presence of God everywhere. If you are on a spiritual journey, you will find a home in these pages. If you are seeking meaning and purpose, you will meet fellow companions on that same road. For those rooted in their identity and practice of the Catholic faith, you will be driven into deeper waters, stretched to consider the implications of the cross in your life. Regardless of where you are with God, the words of this book will leave little doubt in your mind that you are not alone. There are many who are asking the same questions, facing the same struggles and longing for the same intimacy with God. More than anything else though, there is Christ, who stands at the heart of every journey.…
