Groundwork of the Christian Virtues
'Groundwork of the Christian Virtues' Summary
The Groundwork of the Christian Virtues is a sixteen-lecture series in which Bishop Ullathorne makes the case that the virtue of humility is the foundation of all virtues, especially of the three theological virtues and the four cardinal moral virtues. The theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity have God Himself as their object, and the four cardinal virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance show one how to cultivate the theological virtues in one's daily life.Book Details
