Brian O'Leary Books

In recent years Ignatian spirituality has experienced a resurgence. There has been a widespread desire to learn more about Ignatius and his legacy, and many people have made the Spiritual Exercises in one of their many forms, growing through the experience. God Ever Greater is accessibly written for those who are looking for an introduction to Ignatian spirituality, while being suitable for 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.

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.

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.

Irský jezuita Brian O’Leary vychází z pestré zkušenosti dlouhodobě přednášejícího na různých institutech, ale rovněž ze zkušenosti exercitátora v několika světových centrech spirituality Ignáce z Loyoly. V textu ukazuje, jak pomáhá ignaciánská spiritualita odhalovat, že Pán je stále větší než naše představy o něm.
