St. Bonaventure's Commentary on the Sentences: Theological Virtues, trans. J. Isaac Goff and J.A. Wayne Hellmann. Works of St. Bonaventure 19 (Franciscan Institute Publications 2026).
"To touch the heart of St. Bonaventure's theology one must first grasp his thinking on the theological virtues - faith, hope, and love. For Bonaventure the theological virtues are the engine of the Christian life itself. Through them we recover the fullness of our humanity and participate in the universal Christian vocation of carrying the world back to God in prayer and loving action. J Isaac Goff and J. A. Wayne Hellmann, OFM Conv offer us the first English translation of Bonaventure's extensive treatment of the theological virtues in his Sentences commentary. This wonderful volume is essential reading for students and teachers alike: in it St. Bonaventure's theological genius, humble piety, and pastoral warmth are on full display, as is his Franciscan heart."
