Reflective Living | Your life may appear to you as very ordinary, dull and commonplace, a life of no great significance: yet there are hidden dimensions to it which can be explored to release your vast potential for good.

Brian Grogan, SJ


Navigating the Gospels: Luke | People sometimes think of the Gospels as biographies of Jesus.  But, unlike modern biographies, they tell us very little about Jesus' childhood, his family background, his education, or even what he looked like. In the forthcoming series, Philip sets out to explain how the Gospels came to be written and what the purpose of each one is beginning this autumn with Luke's Gospel.

Philip Fogarty, SJ


The Future of Europe: Uniting Vision, Values & Citizens?

The Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice

The Future of Europe: Uniting Vision, Values and Citizens? explores many of the key issues now facing the EU: Is there a European identity? What does it mean to be a European citizen? What role can Christian values play in furthering European integration? Faced with massive global inequalities, how is the EU responding to the challenges of development, migration and asylum?

Can Europe’s leaders provide an adequate response to the widespread sense that ‘Brussels’ is distant from and indifferent to the needs and concerns of ordinary people?

The contributors to The Future of Europe: Uniting Vision, Values and Citizens?, who include Bertie Ahern TD, Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, Peter Sutherland, David Begg  and John Gormley TD, address these and related  questions in seventeen papers which provide a range of perspectives – political, economic, historical, cultural and theological – on the EU and its future.

The book was launched by An Taoiseach Bertie Ahern on 25th Sept '06
