All of human life is accompanied by pain and difficulty. Christians are frequently caught off guard by the suffering they experience.

This form of speech is necessary in the face of pride, vice, and folly, and should be employed by Christians in a manner consistent with Scripture. As Leland Ryken writes,"... tone (the writer’s attitude toward the material) is crucial in satire.

Episode 143: Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Books, with Karen Swallow Prior
My guest is Karen Swallow Prior. Her newest book is Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Books. Reading great literature well has the power to cultivate virtue. Great literature increases knowledge of and desire for the good life by showing readers what virtue looks like and where vice leads. It is not just what one reads but how one reads that cultivates virtue. Reading good literature well requires one to practice numerous virtues, such as patience, diligence, and prudence. And learning to judge wisely a character in a book, in turn, forms the reader's own character.
