Can God truly be found in every moment and every situation of our lives?  Based on the spirituality of St. Ignatius of Loyola and rooted in 500 years of Catholic tradition, this video’s message is that everything in this world can be viewed as an invitation to draw closer to God and experience God’s love more fully. Three dynamic Jesuit narrators—Greg Boyle, SJ, James Martin, SJ, and John O’Malley, SJ---share personal stories and help us understand how to foster an awareness of God’s ability to work through all circumstances. Viewers see examples of God’s presence in joyful and painful moments, in Mass and the sacraments, and in everyday life. The final video segment highlights possible responses to God’s invitation, including a simple form of the classic Ignatian prayer, the Daily Examen.

Do you know God--or do you just know about God? Do you have a real relationship with God, or do you just have a religion empty of divine experience?  Can you believe in a God without limits---a God powerful enough to enable you to think, love, and live differently? Paul Coutinho, SJ, is an internationally-known Indian Jesuit priest with a genial sense of humor and a penchant for asking deeply thought-provoking spiritual questions.  In How Big Is Your God? Fr. Coutinho shares his trademark stories, parables, and humorous ancedotes as he draws upon both Western and Eastern influences to help us embrace a God whose love truly knows no bounds. This inspiring video will encourage viewers with an open mind to experience the infinite breadth of God in a deeply personal way. It also serves as an introduction to Fr. Countinho's award-winning book, How Big is Your God: The Freedom to Experience the Divine, which delves even more deeply into these questions.

From Spanish soldier to soldier for Christ, from vain courtier to humble priest, from self-serving thrill-seeker to educator serving others, St. Ignatius of Loyola stands as a tremendous example of a life transformed by God's love. The saint's story presented here in a one-man dramatization by I. Michael Bellafiore, SJ, is a fascinating pilgrimage to God and illustrates what can happen when we allow God's grace to be at work in our lives. In three 30-minute segments, this play depicts Ignatius' youthful days of misconduct, his spiritual awakening during a lengthy convalescence, his growth experiences at Manresa, the gathering of companions in Paris, and his ministry in Rome. It also portrays how Ignatius founded the world's largest male religious order, the Jesuits, and formed the West's first schools principally for the education of the lay. The video's overarching message is that God cares for each of us personally and intimately, and that experiencing this love makes all the difference in one's life.  Ages junior high and up.  (Produced by Loyola Press, in association with Loyola Productions, Inc.; see website below for a free Study & Discussion Guide.)

Can we believe the Bible? What is sin? Is anyone beyond God's forgiveness? Listen in as award-winning author James Martin, SJ, explroes these and others of life's really big spiritual questions. As a Jeusit priest, Martin holds to Ignatian ideal of "finding God in all things."

Father Martin recounts the experience in A Jesuit Off-Broadway: Center Stage With Jesus, Judas, and Life's Big Questions (Loyola Press, 2007)---a spellbinding story of faith, friendship, and the deepest mysteries of the heart. Here he draws from the experience to share lessons and insights with the viewer, and to issue an invitation to hear the whole story.
