Customer Reviews

A brilliant, highly engaging work in theological ethics.

An exceptionally solid, indeed exciting, contribution to theological ethics. Harned rehabilitates our understanding of and appreciation for an old, even old-fashioned, virtue and forces us to rethink its meaning for us today. His book is unusual, beautifully written, and persuasive. I would think that individual Christians would find this book very helpful and deeply meaningful. The author is a wonderful guide to the moral life and a wise counselor. Highly recommended.
