Video – Fr. Luedtke – 8 Day Retreat – 16/25 – The Prediction of the Passion – CONF 348

Ave Maria!

Fr. Ben Luedtke gives the sixteenth of twenty-five conferences for his Eight Day Ignatian Retreat. The subjects he covers are: How Jesus predicts his suffering and death, then rise again, self-emptying is failure lets fail with him, Transfiguration, Fasting, Approach to Jerusalem, Palm Sunday, We must make fundamental choices, discern Gods will and follow it, free ourselves of personal attachments, Cost benefit, Accept or reject. Death bed perspective, final judgment perspective. Must look at His person, words, and actions, what he suffered, hiddenness of God, all for me.

About the retreat:   The retreat was conducted by Fr. Ben Luedtke who has condensed St. Ignatius' classic thirty day spiritual exercises into an eight day retreat that makes this life changing spiritual experience more accessible to the average person. It consists of twenty-five conferences (recorded in this video series), which are used by those on retreat along with further reflections given to them as handouts to base their hour long meditations which they make after each conference. The typical day consists of three of these conferences, one in the morning, afternoon and evening. Fr. Ben also gave them private spiritual direction and Mass each day. The retreat took place at the Mother of the Redeemer Retreat Center in Bloomington, IN from Oct 9-17th, 2016. Father usually gives these retreats at this retreat center in the spring and fall of each year. See his website for other times and places or to arrange one near you.
