Faith, Hope and Love, by Fr Andrew Pinsent

Faith, Hope and Love. The Theological Virtues. What is a good human being and who is good? Has anyone ever been perfect and, if so, who? How does one grow in goodness and become perfect? What is man really? What would we be like, male and female, if human nature could ever be brought to perfection? This book is an attempt to answer these questions by examining the meaning of virtue following the coming of Christ, or what one might call the ‘Christian Revolution’ of virtue ethics, particularly in regard to the theological virtues: Faith, Hope and Charity. Fr. Andrew Pinsent is Research Director of the Ian Ramsey Centre for Science and Religion at Oxford University, a Research Fellow of Harris Manchester College and a co-founder of the Evangelium project.
