Spiritual Consolation An Ignatian Guide for the Greater Discernment of Spirits

What does God want for our lives? How can we assess when feelings, even pleasant ones, are signs that God is calling us in a particular direction? In Spiritual Consolation, Timothy Gallagher, a retreat leader and popular author of The Examen Prayer and The Discernment of Spirits, introduces us to the teachings of Ignatius of Loyola on this crucial question. Through the use of real-life examples and the Ignatian principles from the Second Rule, Fr. Gallagher shows how all of us, especially those with busy religious lives, can learn to hear and follow God's leading. This book is both the completion of Dr. Gallagher's esteemed Ignatian trilogy and a provocative work in its own right.Gallagher, Timothy M. is the author of 'Spiritual Consolation An Ignatian Guide for the Greater Discernment of Spirits', published 2007 under ISBN 9780824524296 and ISBN 0824524292.
