About the Book

This book tells the life of Pedro Arrupe SJ, 1907-1991, whose cause for beatification was introduced in 2019.  Arrupe played a central role in the Church of the twentieth century and his influence endures in the many who are fired by his idealism, vision and way of life. A tiny man with a heart truly larger than the world, he lived like a church mouse, prayed for four hours daily, and had a vibrant relationship with the three divine Persons through his sixteen years as General of the Jesuits. Born in Bilbao, he experienced the poverty of the Madrid slums while pursuing medical studies, and witnessed miracles at Lourdes which led him to join the Jesuit Order in 1927. He was expelled from Spain with his fellow-Jesuits in 1931 and began working in Japan in 1938 only to endure thirty-three days of solitary confinement on charges of espionage, and was a first responder in the oven of Hiroshima when the atom bomb fell there in 1945. He was elected in 1965 as superior general of the Jesuits, then numbering 36,000, and led them fearlessly for sixteen challenging years as the Church grappled with the decrees of the Vatican Council, 1962-1965.  He made a refreshed Ignatian spirituality available not only to the Society but to Christians everywhere who try to find God in their daily lives. His renewal of Jesuit life and mission crystallised around the faith that does justice, and he challenged Jesuit alumni worldwide to become ‘men and women for and with others’. In 1980 he founded the Jesuit Refugee Service which has now spread globally. 

About the Author :
Brian Grogan SJ is a former president of Milltown Institute of Theology and Philosophy. He has devoted most of a lifetime to mining and circulating the rich treasures of Ignatian spirituality. 

Review :
‘This book will enrich whoever picks it up, open the eyes of your heart, giving a true flavour of this remarkable man.’ ‘More than a memoir, this is a meditation on the life and death of Pedro Arrupe...this book belongs with the best in recent spiritual biography’. ‘this really is an account of a saintly life’ ‘...a multidimensional portrayal of one of the greatest Church figures of our times...the author’s clear, measured exposition of the guiding principles of Arrupe’s life make this an accessible, provocative read.’   ‘this book explains why anyone should still be interested in this religious leader from the last millennium.’ ‘Both as a testimony to one of the most inspirational figures of the twentieth century Church, and as a guide to how his legacy continues to be felt, Pedro Arrupe: A Heart Larger Than the World has much to recommend it’
