Hauerwas on the nature of Christian community
March 8, 2007 at 10:17 pm (Living our faith)
Hauerwas writes in A Community of Character, “Any community and polity is known and should be judged by the kind of people it develops…The most important social task of Christians is to be nothing less than a community capable of forming people with virtues sufficient to witness to God’s truth in the world.” (2)
What does this process of development look like? Is it an ethos to be caught or as Kallenberg would say a grammar to be learned?
