Book Reviews of Principles of Christian Morality
Book Review: Good overall view of moral theology
Summary: 5 Stars
This volume is a good little work which gives a very basic introduction to the first principles of moral theology. This was the first book I read when I got serious about getting a handle on the Catholic Church's teaching with regard to morals. In short, I think this work is incredibly valuable because it drives home on a single point - the point of morality is a response to love (namely, God's love), and the point of moral theology is the discovery of how best to respond to that love. A short book that can be read in an afternoon, but I would recommend using it as spiritual reading, slowly exploring the book for a few weeks. Well worth the money.
