Reclaiming Humility, Volume 255: Four Studies in the Monastic Tradition
ISBN: 9780879072551 / Angielski / Miękka / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Does humility have a place in contemporary life?

Humility emerges not as a moral virtue achieved by human effort but as a way opened by grace-as a divine "climate" (Christian de Cherge) that we are invited to inhabit. From fourth-century Egypt to twentieth-century...
