Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Formation of Christian Character is a book written by William Straton Bruce, originally published in 1908. This work is a contribution to Christian ethics and aims to explore the formation of character in Christian individuals. The author argues that character is formed by a combination of nature, nurture, and personal choice, and that Christian character is unique in its emphasis on humility, selflessness, and love for others.The book is divided into three parts, with the first part focusing on the nature of character and its formation. The second part explores the role of the family, education, and society in shaping character, while the third part delves into the Christian conception of character formation, including the role of faith, prayer, and the Holy Spirit.Throughout the book, Bruce draws on the teachings of the Bible, as well as the works of philosophers and theologians, to provide a comprehensive and thoughtful analysis of Christian character formation. He also provides practical advice for individuals seeking to cultivate their own Christian character, including the importance of self-reflection, accountability, and community involvement.Overall, The Formation of Christian Character is a timeless work that continues to be relevant for Christians seeking to deepen their faith and live a life of moral and ethical excellence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
