TAN Books

You will discover a treasure in this little booklet—for God wishes all of us to examine our lives in order to grow ever closer to Him. Our Lord is calling us—through the teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola—to stretch our souls toward Him using the Ignatian exercises as countless millions have before us. This booklet will introduce you to St. Ignatius and his methods—it’s a perfect place to begin training your soul or to retrain a soul that has strayed.

The Classics Made Simple series aims to introduce the great works of Catholic literature to a wide readership. The Classics of the Faith are not meant only for saints and scholars: they’re meant for everyone. They’re wise, human, practical, and they have something important to say to each of us.

The Classics are also timeless. Other books come and go, passing with the tastes and fads of each generation. But the Catholic Classics remain and God has used them to teach and sanctify men and women of every age.

We hope this TAN Guide will stir within you a desire to read The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, or if you’ve already read it, to re-read it with a renewed interest. You’ll discover each TAN Guide is a perfect vehicle to introduce your newest favorite Classic to your friends and family. Give this little booklet a few minutes of your time and see what happens!
