Steve and Dean discuss how reading, whether for the purpose of study, devotion, or leisure, is an essential practice for developing the virtues.

S4E3: The Practice of Reading

This Is The Good Life is a podcast devoted to deciphering what it means to live as a Christian in this day and age. Our long-term goal is to bring Virtue and Character back into the conversation of what it means to be Christian. At a time where so many people are focused on getting out to do “real ministry," the hard work of laying down a solid foundation of character through the acquisition of virtues must be done before any of us are capable of doing truly “good work”. As the theologian Ed Witherington says, "You can’t do Christian work if you’re not Christian." Thus, we believe that Christian Character is a necessary part of what it means to be Christian.
