Moral Formation and the Virtuous Life

Theology

“This is a timely addition to the burgeoning scholarship on what early Christians thought about a life of virtue. Blowers has chosen his texts carefully to illustrate important themes relating to the moral formation of early Christians. Ranging from excerpts of The Shepherd of Hermas to Maximus the Confessor, these texts in lively, new, and updated translations will have a wide appeal to scholars, pastoral workers, ethicists, and general readers in the history of early Christianity.”
