NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“User-friendly...The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything…helpfully unpacks core precepts like ‘finding God in all things.’” —Time
The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything by Father James Martin, SJ (bestselling author of Jesus and Learning to Pray) is a practical spiritual guidebook that shows you how to manage relationships, money, work, prayer, and decision-making, all while keeping a sense of humor.
Inspired by the life and teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, this book will help you realize the Ignatian goal of “finding God in all things.” Filled with relatable examples, humorous stories, and anecdotes from the heroic and inspiring lives of Jesuit saints and average priests and brothers, this book will enrich your everyday life with spiritual guidance and history.
Martin explores answers to commonly asked questions such as:
- How do I know what I’m supposed to do in life?
- How can I be happy?
- How can I find God
- How do I love?
- How do I know who I’m supposed to be?
Booklist said, “Martin has a way of popularizing serious religious issues without trivializing their impact and significance.”
The Jesuit Guide to Almost Everything is sure to appeal to fans of Kathleen Norris, Richard Rohr, Anne Lamott, and other Christian Spiritual writers.
