God Is Right in Front of You: A Field Guide to Ignatian Spirituality

Are you searching for God’s presence in your life but don’t know where to look? Are you sure that God is out there somewhere, if only you could find the time and space to explore? Brian Grogan, SJ, shares a simple truth: God is already here—in nature, in prayer, in your relationships, even in experiences of evil and trouble. God is at home both in the micro- and the macro-levels of reality. And God’s loving plan encompasses everything that exists, including and especially you.

In God Is Right in Front of You, you will learn how to find God in every aspect of life and how to use these discoveries to grow in faith. Each chapter is brief enough to be read in a single sitting and ends with an exercise grounded in Ignatian spirituality and designed to help you understand and appreciate that God is all around you every minute of the day.

DR. BRIAN GROGAN, SJ, is a former President of  Milltown Institute of Theology and Philosophy, Dublin, an Emeritus Associate Professor of Spirituality there. He was also Director and Editor of Sacred Space, a worldwide online prayer site of the Irish Jesuits. He has written extensively on Ignatian spirituality and has lectured and led workshops for many years. Currently he is Superior of the Jesuit House of Writers in Dublin.
