Letting God's Spirit Shape All Our Actions: A Retreat with Luke's Gospel

By: Felix Just

Narrated by: Felix Just

Through 12 fascinating and spiritually edifying conferences, you will spend prayerful time with Jesus Christ, using the Gospel according to Luke. Your guide is Scripture expert Fr. Felix Just, SJ (PhD, Yale University).

Luke's Gospel presents a distinctive portrait of Jesus. In Luke, the Holy Spirit guides all the action and empowers the life and ministry of Jesus. Luke's Jesus is the Lord of all nations and the Savior of all peoples; so also, disciples are called to be just like Jesus, embracing all people regardless of social status, loving enemies, welcoming strangers, praising God, and praying for forgiveness.

This audio retreat program combines an insightful examination of Luke's Gospel with three methods of biblical prayer - reflective meditation, imaginative contemplation, and centering prayer - to help you grow in your relationship with Jesus. You can use this program in individual or small group settings, and it fits into a variety of schedules.

If you are looking for a thoughtful and uplifting biblical retreat to deepen your relationship with Jesus, you will love A Retreat with the Gospel of Luke. You will treasure the time spent each day with the Gospel of Luke and Fr. Felix Just.

Educational and spiritually powerful

Fr. Just is a Jesuit priest, New Testament scholar and retreat leader. I very much enjoyed his introductory course to the New Testament. This series was in some ways even more powerful. Fr. Just invites you to playfully encounter Christ through the Gospel of Luke. Each of the 12 segments is 25 minutes long; I found it helpful to listen to them each day in my car.

This series includes a free downloadable guide for prayer and reflection written by Fr. Just. I found the outlines and reflection questions thoughtful and well organized. Also, it contained a number of resources/suggested readings for further thought.

If you want to carve out meaningful time with Luke, this series is perfect. I highly recommend it.
