Christian Virtues
Virtue is the “art of living well.” Since most of us desire to live well, we strive to live virtuous lives. Google virtue and you are bound to discover varying lists of virtues, but there are uniquely Christian virtues: faith, hope, and love. Yes, you might find culture touting these virtues, but there is a depth to them that is only achieved in relationship with Christ. In this Groundwork series we study scriptures that will help us better understand what it means to live a life with Christian virtues, discover the depth of faith, hope, and love unique to Christianity, and discuss how we can live into these virtues even when the odds might be against us.
