Jesuit Father Bill Sneck takes an in-depth look into Ignatian Spirituality. Ignatian Spirituality insists that God is present in our world and active in our lives. It is a pathway to deeper prayer, good decisions guided by keen discernment, and an active life of service to others. St. Ignatius of Loyola founded the Society of Jesus in 1540 after years of his own spiritual discernment and discoveries. Ultimately discernment is praying for the grace to act on a decision that has been spiritually conceived.

From the moment they saw me in my short, little dress, I was the center of attention. So we started playing truth or dare. And then they stopped letting me pick truth.
