Putting on the Heart of Christ by Gerald M. Fagin, SJ, offers a fresh look at the Spiritual Exercises through the lens of virtue ethics. In doing so, the book encourages us to become the kind of person whose very life is in tune with the heart of Christ. Fr. Fagin covers 15 virtues throughout the book, including gratitude, reverence, and forgiveness. Each is explained within the context of the Spiritual Exercises and the life of St. Ignatius, as well as within the context of Scripture. Ultimately, Fr. Fagin uses virtue ethics along with the Spiritual Exercises to help us think beyond. What has God called me and to think quite specifically in terms of Who has God called me to be.

Gerald M. Fagin, SJ, has been a spiritual director for 35 years. He has taught courses on the Spiritual Exercises and on Ignatian Spirituality at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. For the last 12 years, he has taught courses in spirituality and moral theology in the Loyola Institute for Ministry graduate program at Loyola University New Orleans.
