Summary:
"A
guide
to defining and then creating a flourishing
life
, based on the popular class at Yale
What
makes a good
life
? The question is inherent to the human condition, asked by people across generations, professions, and social classes, and addressed by all schools of philosophy and religions. This search for meaning, as Yale professors Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz argue, is at the crux of a crisis that is facing Western culture, a crisis that, they propose, can be ameliorated by searching, in one's own
life
, for the underlying truth. In 'A
Life
Worth
Living
,' named after its authors' highly sought-after undergraduate course, Volf, Croasmun, and McAnnally-Linz chart out this question, providing readers with jumping-off points, road maps, and habits of reflection for figuring out where their lives hold meaning and where things need to change. Drawing from the major world religions and from impressively truthful and courageous secular figures, A
Life
Worth
Living
is a
guide
to
life
's
most
pressing question, the one asked of all of us: How are we to live?"--From publisher.
