Fountain of Hope: Ignatian Wisdom for the Work of Justice in a Turbulent World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781625249258)

"Saint-Jean offers a timely blueprint for a hope that can transform us. With a powerful Ignatian imagination, we can mindfully face each day with more confidence than we previously felt was accessible. Hope, "the thing with feathers, perching in the soul," is within reach."

-Father Greg Boyle, author of Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion

This book is based on letters Ignatius of Loyola wrote back in the 16th century to people working to build the Realm of Heaven here on Earth. Today, as we encounter the challenges of the 21st century, his advice is just as relevant and astute. In the midst of our turbulent world, he reminds us that we are called to be Christ's co-workers in justice, co-creators with a Creator who never stops bringing new possibilities into being.

In the many letters Ignatius wrote, he gives practical advice for facing the never-ending difficulties that hinder God's work. His counsel is as helpful for the trivial, tedious hindrances as it is for the larger, more dangerous disturbances. He shows us how to keep going, despite weariness, illness, frustration, opposition, confusion, and lack of resources. He gives us hope.

The future holds new possibilities!With God's help, we can bring them into reality.
