Seeking God
Jesus promised, “Seek and you will find!” Do you long for a transforming encounter with the living God? Jesus assures us that those willing to become seekers will find what their hearts most deeply desire. The promise is clear. Those who seek God consistently, faithfully, and passionately will not be disappointed. They will find God and all those good things that accompany God’s Kingdom. Profoundly influenced by his long friendship with Dallas Willard, and his experience guiding people through the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius for the last thirty years, Trevor Hudson offers you a practical tool kit for your seeking journey. You search for God does not have to take you to a remote mountain top as God wants to meet us right where we are in our everyday lives. Reading the wisdom contained within the pages of Seeking God will help you to move beyond insight and knowledge and encounter the presence of the living God as a reality in your daily life.

Andrew Garfield: La aventura espiritual de silencio (Magis 457)
Es probable que, al aceptar el papel del padre Rodrigues en Silencio, la película de Martin Scorsese, el actor Andrew Garfield no imaginara la naturaleza de la aventura que estaba por comenzar. Silencio está basada en una novela de Shûsaku Endô que cuenta el épico viaje de dos jóvenes jesuitas portugueses a Japón, en el siglo xvii, a fin de encontrar ahí a su mentor, cuyo paradero se desconoce y de quien se rumora que ha incurrido en apostasía. Es una empresa no solamente peligrosa para su vida, sino también para su fe. Y, a fin de prepararse para interpretar al padre Rodrigues, Garfield hizo una inmersión profunda en la espiritualidad jesuita, que comenzó con la realización de los Ejercicios Espirituales de San Ignacio de Loyola. En este número de Magis te presentamos el relato de esa aventura, a través de las voces del propio Garfield, de Scorsese y de James Martin, sj, quien dirigió al primero en los Ejercicios y asesoró al segundo en la realización de la película.

Consensus and Conflict
Most students of practical theology recognize Richard R. Osmer as the originator of the "consensus model" of practical theology, one of the most accessible and widely used models of practical theological reflection in the world. Yet Osmer's influence extends beyond practical theological method. Over his long career, his writing and teaching spanned Christian education, youth ministry, spirituality, and evangelism as well, giving each of these congregational practices new theological substance. A pastor as well as a scholar at heart, Osmer writes with the American congregation in mind, insisting on making theology central to every Christian practice. Consensus and Conflict traces Osmer's mult...
