By contrast, \u003ci\u003eAn Ignatian Pathway\u003c\/i\u003e by Paul Coutinho, SJ, was written specifically to help readers enter into an experience with the Divine, an approach that amplifies the easily overlooked mystical dimension of Ignatian spirituality and appropriately reflects Fr. Coutinho's Eastern background and philosophy.\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAn Ignatian Pathway\u003c\/i\u003e, Fr. Coutinho has collected 100 excerpts from the Spiritual Exercises and the Autobiography of St. Ignatius Loyola. The excerpts are culled from all four weeks of the Exercises, and each entry is followed by a short meditation written by Fr. Coutinho. Significantly, Fr. Coutinho's meditations attempt to restore a foundational insight of Ignatian spirituality: We don't find God; God finds us.\u003cbr\u003eAs a companion to the Spiritual Exercises, \u003ci\u003eAn Ignatian Pathway\u003c\/i\u003e is ideal for anyone who has done, is currently doing, or hopes to do the Exercises, and for any \"student\" of Ignatian spirituality who desires a fuller, richer, more mystical experience with God. \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4053577\"\u003ePaul Coutinho\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Loyola Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 5.14w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780829433098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0829433090\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL062000\"\u003eSpirituality\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL012040\"\u003eChristian Living | Inspirational\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL012120\"\u003eChristian Living | Spiritual Growth\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Coutinho, SJ, currently conducts an international ministry of speaking, retreat work, and spiritual direction from a base at St. Louis University, where he received his doctorate in historical theology.
