  • The Terrible, No-Good, Very Bad Week

    September 4, 2026 · 14 min

    A convergence of unrelated family crises in a single week raises the question of what it means to feel spiritually attacked. Can we assign blame to an external force for the misfortunes of life? There is a way to experience suffering…

  • On the Heels of Love

    August 10, 2026 · 10 min

    The Spanish verb Ignatius used in the Contemplatio, alcanzar, means not "to attain" but "to catch up to," revealing the exercise as an invitation to close a distance rather than reach a static goal. Because God has already been moving…

  • What Ignatius Actually Meant by Indifference

    July 27, 2026 · 7 min

    Ignatian indifference is not apathy or the absence of desire, but a hard-won freedom to hold even our deepest, most genuine desires loosely enough to trust God's invitation in whatever the moment actually brings. Ignatius did not arrive at…

  • The Body Knows: Ignatian Discernment and Felt Sense

    June 11, 2026 · 9 min

    The body is not an obstacle to spiritual knowledge but one of its most reliable channels, a truth independently discovered by Ignatius of Loyola on a sickbed and by psychologist Eugene Gendlin in a Chicago laboratory four hundred years…

  • Under Whose Flag? – An Ignatian Response to Political Power

    April 22, 2026 · 15 min

    The Gospel is inherently political—concerned with how human beings live together, how power is exercised, and who bears its cost—but it is not partisan, and the difference between those two things matters enormously. The Ignatian…

  • Hope Is Not Optimism

    March 20, 2026 · 15 min

    Hope and optimism are not the same thing: optimism is a prediction about outcomes, while hope is an orientation of the spirit that doesn't require a particular future to hold firm. Drawing on Havel, Rahner, Byung-Chul Han, and Ignatian…

  • The Benevolent Glance: A Spirituality of Seeing

    March 4, 2026 · 12 min

    We are made for mutual gaze and this fundamental human need points toward something deeper: a God who gazes upon us with love before we get anything right or wrong. To be truly seen by another, and to truly see them, is not merely a social…

  • Cherished Belonging: Reimagining Sin as Woundedness

    February 2, 2026 · 15 min

    What Christianity has called sin can now be named more precisely as trauma, developmental wounds, and disconnection from our true selves—a shift from moral failure to existential brokenness. Greg Boyle's work at Homeboy Industries…

  • The Wisdom of Holy Mess

    January 19, 2026 · 10 min

    The universe operates on a rhythm of order and creative disruption, from the primordial soup to scattered toys on a living room floor. God doesn't sterilize our chaos—whether the playful mess of children at creative play or the painful…

  • Lost in the Cloud of Knowing

    December 17, 2025 · 8 min

    We live in an age of instant information where every question can be answered with a quick search, but this efficiency kills the wonder that questions are meant to inspire. The spiritual life requires us to be comfortable with mystery and…

  • The Labyrinth, the Race, and the Spirit of Haste

    November 24, 2025 · 11 min

    Hastiness reveals the spirit that treats even sacred practices as achievements to be completed rather than journeys to be trusted. The labyrinth teaches us that God's path is inefficient by the world's standards, winding away from the…

  • Between Opulence and Simplicity: An Ignatian Pilgrimage

    November 10, 2025 · 11 min

    On a recent pilgrimage to Spain visiting Ignatian sites, I wrestled with how ornate decoration and costly adornments often obscure St. Ignatius's radical journey from opulence to simplicity. The sacred exists not in elaborate structures…
