On the path to God, we all experience daily ups and downs. Sometimes prayer comes alive, inspiring us to serve our neighbors and the church. At other times, our spiritual life seems dry; we grow discouraged, and God feels distant. Now, you can use a 500-year-old method to deepen your awareness of God.
In Ignatian Discernment in Daily Life: Finding God in All Things, you will explore the 14 rules for the discernment of spirits as laid out in the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola. Fr. Timothy Gallagher helps you apply the rules to daily life, and his accessible lectures are perfect for both newcomers and those versed in Ignatian spirituality. You will begin this course by studying the inspiring life of St. Ignatius, whose conversion story served as a model for his spiritual writings. Then, you will study each rule one by one, learning powerful techniques for responding to spiritual consolations and desolations.
You will discover detailed commentary on each rule and an abundance of practical examples. Retreat leaders, spiritual directors, priests, counselors, and lay Christians will discover the unique value of these rules today. Fr. Gallagher’s clear presentations make a classic spiritual text accessible to all who seek spiritual growth. Ignatius’ practical wisdom shows us the way forward.

I previously read Gallagher's Discernment of Spirits as part of my spiritual direction training. Because I thought it was a helpful book, I wanted to revisit it as I am more intentionally investigating discernment. This format is a series of lectures based on the book, but it is not the book's complete text. Gallagher is conversationally discussing the content of the book. It has been several years since I read it, but I remember many of the illustrations and points.
Ignatius' Rules of Discernment are intended as a guide for spiritual directors to help those they are working with to see patterns as they seek to discern the movement of God in their lives. Most of the rules are, in one way or another, about Consolation or Desolation. Ignatius relies heavily on emotion and internal feelings as one of the tools of discernment. He does not simply accept that emotion or feelings are God's method of speaking to us. Sometimes, feelings are just feelings. Sometimes, they are part of temptation. But sometimes, they are part of how God communicates with us. If God has created us with a personality, experiences, giftings, etc., then getting in touch with all of that will be part of becoming who God wants us to be.
Gallagher (and Ignatius) are Catholic, and some aspects of the rules will require some translation to a protestant context. But the rules of discernment should be part of a well-rounded teaching about discernment. Gallagher is not the only modern teacher of Ignatius' rules, but his books are worth reading.
Ignatius lived 500 years ago in a different culture and primarily spoke Spanish. Some aspects of the rules have problematic discussions of gender and certainly a pre-enlightenment understanding of how the spiritual world interacts with the physical world. Because of the differences in culture and language, a modern interpreter is helpful to understand how we should understand them today.
