Very Informative

Fr. Timothy’s books are so interesting and informative. This was a great book on St. Ignatius’ 14 rules of discernment for married couples and how each rule applies to the marriage. Following the story of Ann and Mark made it easy to understand how each rule applied to their current situation.

A good introduction to St Ignatius

I’ve never gotten through all 14 rules until this book. I think its application to my married life was the biggest draw. I’m glad I listened. I also have a paperback copy, which I’m sure we will revisit together. I would definitely recommend to a married couple to read it together. Father Gallagher is an experienced spiritual guide.

Loved it

The examples of the spiritual setbacks in daily life were extremely relatable and helpful, I loved this book

Great marriage resource

Instructive, sensible and a helpful book to read with a spouse. Tools for daily life on your spiritual journey.

Eye Opener

I could relate to everything that was shared and now begin to understand what I didn’t know then.

Excellent guidance for marriage

As a Catholic psychologist, married for 35 years, I found the wisdom of Father Gallagher so very educational and inspiring! I will be applying these ideas to both my personal and professional life.

Inspiring Read

Not only does this book simplify Ignatius’ 14 points of discernment in the spiritual life, but it also is a consultation in and of itself. A quick read, but one that I will definitely make sure my spouse listens to too!
