Feast of St Ignatius, founder of the Jesuits. He began life as a vain courtier and soldier. The turning point came while he was recovering from a war injury and was given a book of lives of saints. As he read he thought: “What if I should do as St Francis or St Dominic did?”
Conversation
We are shaped by what we pay attention to and admire. Our culture floods us with things unworthy of our attention or models who make us feel powerless. Why I write about saints, not just canonized, but who expand our moral imagination and make us think, what if I lived like that?
I have been so inspired about you daily reflection in GUTD. I have a whole new understanding of the saints and their role in the church. Thank you for your ministry!
