Overview

What if the good life has less to do with prestige and plenty and more to do with prudence, hope and faith? Would you still want a guide to get there? Maybe the idea of a life based on the virtues creates an uneasy feeling. Too hard, you might think, too boring. Robert Lockwood sets the record straight in A Guy's Guide to the Good Life. Lockwood weaves Scripture, Church teaching and everyday stories--from Babe Ruth's funeral to the author's doomed efforts to make the varsity basketball team--revealing the virtues for what they really are: a call to action and our tie to the living God. The virtuous life isn't just the good life; it's the best life, the life you were made for.
