As part of its Ignatian Heritage Month celebrations, Loyola University Chicago released a series of daily Examens. One invites reflection on beauty. Dr. Derrick Witherington introduces an encounter with beauty experienced by 20th-century theologian Paul Tillich and proceeds “to invite us to consider what moments of beauty we’ve encountered today, and how those experiences help us to understand who we are as beloved children of God basking in the vital joy of this awareness.”
