5 Virtues for Hard Economic Times

This issue of Catholic Update recommends a proactive approach toward dealing with our country's current economic storm, describing five virtues that can help us navigate through to better times with stability, sensibility and momentum to persevere in the face of persistent challenges. Author Richard M. Gula, S.S., writes, ""Turning to virtue as a way to reflect on these trying times enables us to bring together who we are with who we hope to become by means of how we respond to the challenges that face us. More than any other approach to moral living, virtue ethics connects our responses to the moral challenges of our day with the kind of persons we are.""
