First Belong to God

Bol

This book uses the classic week-long “short form” of the Exercises, linking Ignatius’ famous contemplations with Francis’ call to a synodal, fraternal, and ecological conversion. It can be used as a companion guide for an individual or group retreat in a formal retreat setting under a director, or by a parish or community over a longer period. Drawing on the wisdom of Pope Francis and the spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola, austen Ivereigh has written a captivating spiritual guide for our turbulent age. Designed as an eight-day Ignatian retreat, First Belong to God serves as a roadmap to deeper discipleship. It does this by focusing on the three foundational forms of belonging: to God, to creation, and to others. Whether you're embarking on a solitary spiritual expedition or a journey with like-minded individuals, First Belong to God offers the next best thing to a personal retreat with Pope Francis: a full-soul immersion into his wisdom via the classic Jesuit retreat that shaped him profoundly.
