Ad maiorem Dei gloriam (To the greater glory of God) is the motto associated with St. Ignatius of Loyola and the order that he founded, the Society of Jesus. His passion to become a courtier, soldier, and advisor to royalty became, under the influence of grace, a passion to serve Christ—all the way, holding nothing back. And through his establishment of the Jesuit order and his masterpiece, The Spiritual Exercises, this soldier fighting for the glory of God changed the world.
