Jesuits have contributed to the life and theological development of
the Church for many generations - culminating in Pope Francis, the
first Jesuit Pope. Ignatius Loyola called his men and all those
inspired by the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises to a certain ecclesial
disposition a way of thinking, judging and feeling with the Church.
Gill Goulding discusses the key texts from St Ignatius' life and
work to identify the Ignatian ecclesial disposition that is
centered on Christ. It is fuelled by a Trinitarian horizon, and
with a clear emphasis on the dignity of every human person. Golding
introduces and examines key historical figures such as St Pierre
Favre and Mary Ward; as well as two of the major 20th century
theologians - Henri de Lubac and Avery Dulles. Finally, Goulding
highlights the Ignatian ecclesial disposition in the highest
authority of the contemporary Roman Catholic Church, in the
background to the pontificates of John Paul II, Benedict XVI and
Francis, focusing on the centrality of Christ and the work of the
New Evangelization. This book raises the key questions of the
relationship between Christ and the Church as the body of Christ.
It indicates the importance of maintaining a Trinitarian horizon in
theological vision and raises the pertinent if difficult question
of the meaning of Christian obedience. Goulding also underlines the
importance of the integration of spirituality and theology which
has ramifications for all Christian denominations and possibilities
for ongoing inter-faith dialogue.
