About this ebook
A road map for finding inner peace and bringing peace to others
These days, everyone is looking for peace. But too often we look in all the wrong places.
In Finding Peace Here and Now, award-winning Catholic author Eric A. Clayton shows you that peace starts from within. By looking inside yourself, you can discover and embrace who you are meant to be in God. Using Saint Ignatius of Loyola as a guide, Clayton offers:
● stories from the Ignatian tradition
● meditations on God's unique dream for you
● spiritual reflections to help you experience peace
● practical tools for becoming who you want to be
These resources will lead you along a path of inner peace, which you can then extend outward to bring peace to others and challenging situations.
This book will resonate with those who are familiar with the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises as well as those learning about them for the first time. In the end, you'll learn how to navigate your own journey to inner peace and a love of self while discovering how this journey is tied to better loving and serving neighbors and working for global justice--all for the greater glory of God.
