In a world of relentless pace—where hustle often replaces reflection—the St. Josemaria Institute stands like a quiet beacon, guiding people back to a life of meaning, purpose, and interior depth.
Founded in 2006 by Midwest Theological Forum, the St. Josemaria Institute is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the life, teachings, and spirituality of St. Josemaría Escrivá.
Through podcasts, articles, retreats, and spiritual resources, the St. Josemaria Institute helps people integrate faith into everyday life. Whether you are a parent juggling family life, living your calling to the single life, or seeking renewal during a quieter season of life, the St. Josemaria Institute offers something for you.
A Saint of the Ordinary Life
St. Josemaría, a Spanish priest, deeply understood the fatigue and challenges of daily work. He taught that our ordinary routines—done with love and intention—can become pathways to holiness.
“God is calling you to serve him in and from the ordinary….
There is something holy,
something divine hidden in the most ordinary situations,
and it is up to each one of you to discover it.”
St Josemaría Escriva
Passionately Loving the World, no. 52
The St. Josemaria Institute captures this spirit beautifully. One week, you might find a podcast on the importance of interior life in a noisy and distracting digital age; another week, a reflection on how small acts of service can be transformative. The themes are timeless ̶ and urgently needed in today’s agitated and stressful world.
Why It Matters Now
In a time when many are searching for purpose, identity, and inner peace, the St. Josemaria Institute offers a quiet but powerful reminder: how you work, love, suffer, and forgive can become sacred. It is a message as timeless as it is vital. More importantly, it may help bring you closer to God.
