Overview
Donald Capps draws on Erik H. Erikson's life cycle theory, biblical narratives, and the Beatitudes to show how individuals can combat the deadly sins through cultivating saving virtues. This work is rooted in the Bible. Narratives of biblical figures provide vivid examples of the dynamics of sin and virtue. This book has broad implications for the practice of ministry and will be of particular interest to all who want to explore sin and virtue from a biblical, pastoral, and psychological perspective.Synopsis
