Readers Guide to 'The Jesuit Guide'

A Jesuit friend likes to say: "Cheap is good; free is better."  In that spirit, here is a free Reading and Discussion Guide for The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, which has just been posted online, and can be downloaded and printed out.  This version will be in the paperback version due out in 2012.  Until then, feel free to use this, which includes a Q&A, Reflection Questions, Ten Things You (Almost) Didn't Know About the Jesuits, and a section called Friends in the Lord, which looks at the interconnected lives of the Jesuit saints.  It's all here.  AMDG.

Do we ever retire from being mothers?
Since retiring from my job, my husband has found me irritating. We had a talk (after fighting), and he is right: I am mothering him. Smothering him. “I have a mother,” he said. “I want a wife, a partner, a best friend.”

Fr. James Martin, S.J.: It’s Lent. Give to the poor—generously
Jesus asks us to be generous with the poor. It’s one of the foundations of his public ministry: caring for the poor himself and asking his disciples to do so.

What does God take delight in? Our trust.
We are invited, today, to listen—and as the psalmist today colorfully puts it, God has even done us the courtesy of digging out our ears so that we can hear.
