October 26, 2022 | For the past 40 years moral theology has understood its history to be rooted in the early medieval penitential manuals. This Costan Lecture argues that those manuals were rooted, not simply in a confessional practice, but much more in the context of what today we would call spiritual direction, not focusing on sins but rather pursuing holiness. With that key insight we look to the earlier history of moral theology and find pathways to holiness as a worthy key to understanding Christian expectations.
