Lust and Chastity: Lent 2022

Welcome to the last season of the Seven Capital Vices and their Remedies Lent Series! It's time to discuss lust and chastity. Rather than think through actions, Grace gets to the bottom of lust: depersonalization of others for the sake of pleasure. Chastity, in contrast, is like a blend of fidelity and the gift of seeing all people as full, precious image-bearers, never to be reducible to bodily pleasure or for that matter, just bodies.

Listening to the past can help us to understand our present, but it is so difficult to read ancient works of literature and theology alone. I’m Dr. Grace Hamman, a scholar of medieval literature and mother of three. Old Books With Grace shares my love for old books and listens to the wisdom emanating from these long dead voices. My hope is that Old Books With Grace will empower you to approach often intimidating works of literature and theology and as a result, ask questions of our current age. We live in a time that values the new and the now more than ever. But I truly believe that these books speak outside of the echo-chambers in which we so often find ourselves and help us to find ageless truth from lost centuries.
