{"product_id":"9780670894550","title":"Thirty Days: On Retreat with the Exercises of St. Ignatius","description":"Paul Mariani, finding himself at a crossroads in his life, leaves home one   January for the month-long silent retreat of the Jesuit tradition, based on the   five-century-old Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. He is there to examine his   past-as husband, father, teacher, and pilgrim -in order to discover his place in   God's plan. As day gives way to day, through a guided program of study, prayer   and meditation, broken by long walks along the ice-capped shores of the North   Atlantic, he takes us on a visceral and transcendental journey.   \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRich in history, humor, and epiphany, Mariani's   journal combines a brief life of St. Ignatius with meditations on Jesus' life   and His radical gift of love. Mariani also looks unflinchingly at his own   transgressions and glories in a sense of renewal that sends him back into the   world-and to his family-with a heightened sense of selflessness. Its beauty and   power reminiscent of the works of Kathleen Norris and Thomas Merton, \u003cem\u003eThirty   Days\u003c\/em\u003e is the story of one man's emptying himself until he, and we, have   touched our authentic selves in silence with God.
