Welcome to the Way Ignatian Book Service

This bookshop service is provided by The Way, a journal of Christian spirituality published by the British Jesuits. It aims to make available a range of materials on Ignatius of Loyola, the Spiritual Exercises, the Jesuits and various theological topics, some of which are difficult to obtain elsewhere.

New Poetry

Patrick Purnell SJ, The Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, Son of God
	PATRICK PURNELL SJ writes poetry inspired by the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius Loyola, having spent many years in the ministry of giving the Exercises. He also draws on his background as a teacher and a catechist—he worked for some time as Adviser on Religious Education to the bishops of England and Wales. In this, his third collection to be published by Way Books, he focuses on the Paschal Mystery: the suffering, death and resur¬rection of Jesus. The poems invite readers to recognise the ways in which they themselves are caught up in this story. Yet the tone is not a gloomy one, but rather that of a journey leading to the joy of the risen Christ. New images and fresh ideas here enable this familiar narrative to be seen in a new light. The poems are accompanied by colour reproductions of works of art inspired by the Paschal Mystery. Patrick’s first collection, Imagine, was published in 2003, and its sequel, The Book of Furrows, in 2009. Both are available from Way Books. Price: £9.00 ISBN 978 0 904717 42 6
Benjamín González Buelta SJ, Psalms to Accompany the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius Loyola
	This collection consists of a series of contemporary psalms, personal meditations born of the author’s prayer, a life’s journey with the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius Loyola. González accomplishes something rare, drawing together polarities of modern spirituality that are notoriously hard to integrate: social justice and contemplative interiority, healing and apostolic service, the goodness of transformed humanity and the ugliness of sin, just as he unfailingly puts his poetic finger on experiences which, more often than not, go too deep for words. This book is offered with the intention of helping others to live out and articulate their own experience of the Ignatian Exercises. Countless pilgrims in the Spanish-speaking world have found his words have helped them enter more fully into mystery of Christ. Now, for the first time, González’s uniquely Jesuit gift has been made available to English speakers, so that their spirituality, too, will be nurtured towards an authentically Ignatian experience of God.
