not simply the isolated incidents of the early twentieth century

the love of our Lord must always be made accessible

and when they are prayed

Benedict also discusses such great Christian figures as Tertullian

Reimagining the Ignatian Examen: Fresh Ways to Pray from Your Day Discontinued not simply the isolated incidentsBy: Mark Thibodeaux, SJ Following the example of St. Ignatius, we believe that praying the Examen will lead to a better life. The 500 year old daily practice of honest self assessment and reflection is a founding principle of Ignatian spirituality. What we don't know is if St. Ignatius ever felt like changing it up a bit. Jesuit speaker and author Mark Thibodeaux, SJ, is confident that St. Ignatius wouldn't mind a little flexibility in his prayer.
