The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola were the product of Ignatius' many years of seeking to find God in the events of his daily life. It is a style of spirituality which speaks to life at the beginning of the Third Millennium. Life in our society is filled with change and ambiguity. Ignatian spirituality helps us to see change as a part of the ongoing call to conversion which results when we listen attentively to God's word.

Life can be very hectic and confusing.
It's easy to forget what is truly important. This is the one thing that makes the difference between a life of true joy and a life filled up with mere entertainments. Secondly, God can be found everywhere and anywhere. It's an awareness which came to St. Ignatius as a result of his contemplative prayer. There are no human words, experiences or doctrines which can exhaust the mystery of God.
