In Ignatius the Theologian, Fr. Hugo Rahner, S.J. presents a masterful exploration of St. Ignatius of Loyola’s spiritual vision and its profound theological depth. More than a founder of the Jesuit order or a master of discernment, St. Ignatius emerges here as a true theologian of grace, freedom, and divine love.

Rahner, one of the 20th century’s foremost Jesuit scholars, uncovers how the Spiritual Exercises, letters, and meditations of St. Ignatius reveal a complete and coherent theology rooted in Scripture and lived experience. Through deep analysis and clear exposition, he shows how Ignatius’ spirituality integrates mysticism and mission, prayer and action, contemplation and service—a vision that remains vital for the modern world.

Readers will gain insight into:

• The theological foundations of the Spiritual Exercises
• The Ignatian understanding of divine providence and human cooperation
• The role of interior freedom in Christian life
• How Ignatius’ thought shaped Jesuit identity and mission
• The enduring relevance of Ignatian spirituality today

Ignatius the Theologian is both a scholarly study and a deeply spiritual work, inviting readers—Jesuits, theologians, and lay faithful alike—to enter more deeply into the mind and heart of St. Ignatius, who taught that all things can lead us to the greater glory of God.

Perfect for:

• Students of theology or Church history
• Jesuits and those drawn to Ignatian spirituality
• Readers of the Spiritual Exercises
• Anyone seeking a deeper understanding of prayer and discernment
