Charged with Grandeur: The Book of Ignatian Inspiration (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780829436136)

Sparks for Inspiration from the Ignatian Flame

Gerard Manley Hopkins, SJ, famously wrote that "the world is charged with the grandeur of God." This quote points toward a key principle of the Ignatian tradition: that God is found in all things, in all places.

Yet this is just one of an abundance of inspirational ideas that stem from Ignatian spirituality. To really understand what this unique yet highly practical spirituality is all about, it helps to look at it through many different lenses and to hear about it from many different voices.

Charged with Grandeur contains more than 100 insightful and inspiring Ignatian thoughts from dozens of writers, including James Martin, SJ; Margaret Silf; and Monika Hellwig. The entries are conveniently grouped under 11 different Ignatian themes.

Rather than throw readers into the deep end, Charged with Grandeur allows readers simply to dip their toes into the 500-year-old Ignatian tradition and to be inspired by the many riches it offers.
