What is Your Hope for Spiritual Direction? #6 (Rev. Joe Tetlow, SJ)
Update: 2025-07-15
Description
Each month, an Ignatian spiritual director offers their hope as our way of offering inspiration to pilgrims of hope engaged in the ministry of spiritual direction.
This month’s reflection is offered by Rev. Joe Tetlow, SJ, who was ordained in 1960 and whose decades of ministry include serving as a professor at St. Louis University and as a Dean at Loyola New Orleans. He served on the staff of America Magazine for a number of years and was the assistant for Ignatian spirituality in Rome to Superior General Fr. Peter-Hans Kolvenbach for nine years. He is a spiritual director who directed the Montserrat Retreat House in Dallas. Choosing Christ in the World, his handbook for making the full Spiritual Exercises in everyday life, has been translated into a number of languages. His recent books include Handing on the Fire: Making Spiritual Direction Ignatian and Becoming an Easter People.
