Scripture Readings for Times of Retreat

By George O'Neill

"Scripture Readings for Times of Retreat" is a profound devotional companion designed to guide the faithful through periods of spiritual reflection and prayerful seclusion. Authored by the Reverend George O'Neill, a scholar and member of the Society of Jesus, this work provides a structured approach to engaging with the Holy Scriptures within the context of a religious retreat. The book serves as a spiritual manual, offering selected passages and insights tailored to foster deep meditation, self-examination, and a closer relationship with the divine.

Drawing upon the rich tradition of Jesuit spirituality, O'Neill curates biblical texts that resonate with the themes of purgation, illumination, and union. Whether used during formal Ignatian retreats or for private daily contemplation, "Scripture Readings for Times of Retreat" remains a valuable resource for clergy, religious orders, and laypeople seeking to deepen their interior life. Its timeless approach to scriptural interpretation and spiritual discipline highlights the enduring power of the Bible as a source of strength and guidance for the soul in search of renewal.
