Additional Info
Here are the notes we didn't quite finish today in class. Write them in your notebook and be ready for the quiz on Monday:

  • Principle and Foundation of the Spiritual Exercises

    • Purpose of Man: To live with God forever

    • Purpose of Creation: To help us get closer to God.

    • What to do? Use creation to help us get closer to God, avoid creation when it blocks us from God

    • Ignatian Indifference: NOT that we don't care about what happens. We put our purpose first, then use whatever means God blesses us with for that purpose.

  • "Magis" = more, greater, or better. We strive for the greater good. Not in terms of quantity or popularity, but what is a greater and better use of God's gifts to us
