This volume arose from requests for a tool to facilitate group and individual study of The Discernment of Spirits: An Ignatian Guide to Everyday Living. Used in combination with that classic, A Reader’s Guide to the Discernment of Spirits can assist groups in a variety of settings—parish gatherings, formal classes, spiritual retreats, and other meetings of seekers—and individuals in personal study to begin applying the Rules to daily life.

This handy, easy-to-use workbook is chock-full of probing questions and practical tips on how to apply the profound spiritual insights from the Ignatian tradition of patient, prayerful self-examination. Acclaimed interpreter of Saint Ignatius, author Father Gallagher, provides clear explanations of the centuries-old Jesuit method of discerning God’s will in one’s life. A practical resource, the guide includes ample space on every page for journaling, notes, and reflections to help readers track their progress toward a closer, more loving union with God.
