Virtues: Your Christian Legacy

The virtues point us to a journey of mature faith and ongoing conversion despite temptations to doubt, uncertainty, and lack of charity. To live virtuously is to trust totally in the providence of God, undisturbed by vices that tempt us to make our projects more important than God’s guidance. Read this book and let go of the heavy weight of excessive worry, destructive gossip, and undue meddling. Explore the virtues of the inner life like courage and gratitude, which affect our character. Know the virtues of the relational life such as forgiveness and hospitality, which strengthen the bonds between people and draws us into deeper intimacy with God.
