Article: The Experience of Mystery in a Securlaized Society: An Approach from the Ignatian Tradition, by Rossano Zas Friz de Col

In this article, SSCS member Rossano Zas Friz de Col, S.J., argues for the importance of Igantian spirituality in a society where religious practice and spiritual life have for many Christians become separate realities. Here is his summary of his argument's main points:

First, I will show the implications of what secularization means today by comparing the socio-religious context of Saint Ignatius of Loyola and Sigmund Freud. This analysis will help develop the second point, establishing a relationship between these two socioreligious contexts by highlighting the importance of decision-making from an anthropological horizon. The third and final point will be dedicated to the characterization of a Christian/Ignatian way of decision-making identifying what it has to offer contemporary Christian believers.
