Irish Jesuit theologian Gerry O'Hanlon examines the ecclesiological project of Francis and the new roles within it of pope and bishops, theologians, and all the baptised. He considers the Pope's strategy of a changed ecclesial structure that would out-live his own pontificate.

The author invites you to reflect on the experiences of different people in scripture and in society and how they were affected by loneliness and what offered them hope and courage so that it may encourage you or those whom you serve.

Brian O'Leary, an Irish Jesuit, has been researching and writing on Ignatian spirituality since the 1970s. This is a collection of his essays that have appeared in spirituality journals in a number of countries.

Exploring Ignatian Spirituality is written to appeal, not only to those who are looking for an introduction to Ignatian spirituality, but also to those who have some acquaintance with the Ignatian tradition. It will draw its readers into an exploration of a rich Christian heritage that continues to live and breathe today.

In this book, O'Leary offers a clear and accessible account of what we know about Ignatius as a mystic. Drawing on his own familiarity with the sources, he opens up for us the inner life of Ignatius in so far as it can be known. He also hopes that the reader will identify with what Ignatius is describing, making their reading truly transformative.
