The Jesus Way Karen R Keen

For 500 years the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises have spiritually nourished people across the globe. Developed by Ignatius of Loyola in the 16th century, the Exercises focus on the life of Jesus, our God-given purpose, and spiritual discernment to make everyday decisions guided by the Holy Spirit. This 36-weeks adaptation of the Exercises offers daily options for prayer, Scripture reading, and reflection. The retreat follows Ignatius's intent closely, while still being accessible. Important Ignatian concepts, like inner freedom, are clearly explained. This is an opportunity to be shaped by the story of "God with us." The world offers many narratives, but not all lead to life. What fills your imagination is what you become. In the Spiritual Exercises you allow Jesus to saturate your reality and invite you into a life of purpose.
