"User-friendly...The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything...helpfully unpacks core precepts like ‘finding God in all things.’" ―Time

The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything by Father James Martin, SJ (bestselling author of Jesus and Learning to Pray) is a practical spiritual guidebook rooted in Ignatian spirituality that shows you how to manage relationships, money, work, prayer, and decision-making, all while keeping a sense of humor.

Inspired by the life and teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, this classic of Christian spirituality will help you realize the Ignatian goal of "finding God in all things." Filled with relatable examples, humorous stories, and anecdotes from the heroic and inspiring lives of Jesuit saints and average priests and brothers, this book offers gentle spiritual direction and will enrich your everyday life with spiritual guidance and a path toward finding purpose.

Martin explores answers to commonly asked questions such as:

• How do I know what I’m supposed to do in life?
• How can I be happy?
• How can I find God
• How do I love?
• How do I know who I’m supposed to be?

Booklist said, "Martin has a way of popularizing serious religious issues without trivializing their impact and significance."

The Jesuit Guide to Almost Everything is sure to appeal to fans of Kathleen Norris, Richard Rohr, Anne Lamott, and other Christian Spiritual writers.
