Reclaiming Humility, Volume 255: Four Studies in the Monastic TraditionDoes humility have a place in contemporary life? Were Enlightenment thinkers wrong to reject humility as a "monkish virtue" (Hume) arising from a "slave morality" (Nietzsche)?

Does humility have a place in contemporary life? Were Enlightenment thinkers wrong to reject humility as a "monkish virtue" (Hume) arising from a "slave morality" (Nietzsche)? Australian theologian Jane Foulcher recovers the counter-cultural reading of humility that marked early Christianity and examines its trajectory at key junctures in the development of Western monasticism. Humility emerges not as a moral virtue achieved by human effort but as a way opened by grace--as a divine "climate" (Christian de Cherg ) that we are invited to inhabit. From fourth-century Egypt to twentieth-century Algeria, via Saint Benedict and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, Dr. Foulcher's compelling analysis of theology and practice challenges the church to reclaim Christian humility as essential to its life and witness today.Binding Type: Paperback

PERFECT FOR THE SUMMER
Size: XX-Large, Color: Pale Pink
Pleasantly surprised with this shirt. More pink than in the pic. The material is a bit thicker than expected (like a thin canvas) but breathable and perfect for the summer. Perfect fit for my 240ish build (2XL). Highly recommended.

No stars.
Size: Medium, Color: Light Grey
This shirt is not oxford, it's flannel and will become a jumble of wrinkles when it's washed and dried. Do not waste your money.
