Description
"Inspired by Aristotle's idea of the golden mean, Dr. Timothy Dernlan uses a socratic approach to draw the reader into a personalized, biblically based study of sixty classical Christian virtues. He stimulates the reader with thought-provoking questions, Bible verses, quotations, and a self-assessment for each virtue. This book can be used for personal contemplation, small group studies, family devotions, Bible study, or a classroom discussion guide."--Back cover.
