EI Edition 60: A Royal Epiphany

Hello, all! Unfortunately, due to personal circumstances, Everyday Ignatian will be going on a hiatus. If the Divine Majesty wills it, we will be back in short order. Please keep us in your prayers, and remember: Quodcumque Dixerit Vobis, Facite - Do Whatever He Tells You.

PRAYERS⁠⁠: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3Lp4WwE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠THIS WEEK'S EDITION: https://everydayignatian.com/2024/03/08/ei-edition-67-the-renaissance/ Spanning between the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Renaissance was a period of rebirth across Europe, marked by great advancements in art, exploration, literature, politics, and science. The litany of Renaissance geniuses is not short. Minds like Dante, Shakespeare, Erasmus, and da Vinci shaped Europe (and the entire world) during this time. Given that the Jesuits were founded right smack dab in the middle of this cultural resurgence, it is time to dive into the Renaissance, and explore how this movement impacts us today.

Lent is the season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It is a time to re-learn a fundamental virtue: humility.

It's corny, but it is also true. So much so, that in his Spiritual Exercises, Ignatius dedicates several paragraphs solely to sins of the tongue.

But, inadvertently or not, the movie producers also coined a remarkable rule of thumb for the spiritual life.

The passion that you one had for a hobby, project, or line of work seems to fade away. And it is at those moments that we yearn for something to reignite the fire we once had. Enter the Novena.

All of these Franciscan greats share one thing in common: A joy that is bottomless and effervescent. But how can we, as Ignatians, emulate that?

In a nutshell, this is all we know about the Magi. But, in a certain respect, maybe that is all we need to know about the Sovereigns from the East.

But Ignatius exhorts us to never lose heart, because scaling the mountain is what the spiritual life is all about. As we approach the New Year, let us listen to his advice in setting our resolutions.
