August 2019: New Spiritual Texts in Spanish

Jesuit Sources now offers two important Spanish-language spiritual texts at a discounted rate. Both Corazones Ardientes and Momento a Momento are now available as a bundle for only $20.

 

Corazones ardientes is the Spanish edition of the popular Hearts on Fire. It consists of 117 prayers, written by some 40 Jesuits from the time of the foundation of the Society through today. Some are paraphrases of material in the Spiritual Exercises; others are practical applications that grew out of retreat meditations. The prayers are organized within four “weeks” of the Exercises, but each group of selections is eclectic and diverse. The prayer of a Jesuit steeped in the piety of the 17th century may appear next to that of a modern social reformer, for example; a theologian’s reflections may follow thoughts of an parish priest.

 

Momento a Momento draws on the classic retreat model, the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, to offer a series of 32 “moments” that guide the reader with thought-provoking questions, practical suggestions, and excerpts carefully chosen from scripture and the Spiritual Exercises. Its simple format can be used by an individual or by groups in a number of ways: as a way of making the Spiritual Exercises in daily life, as a guide for daily prayer, as a companion for reflection, or as suggested themes for a retreat.
