In this episode, Fr Yuri and Fr Geoffrey reflect on a chapter in Improvisation: The Drama of Christian Ethics by Samuel Wells... well, Fr Yuri improvises his part in the reflection (and a good job he does, indeed!).

We make a mistake when we think of ethics as only being issues and struggles that interrupt our "normal life". In fact, this view is entirely unbiblical and untraditional. We need to think of ethics as the ongoing practice of the Good, so that we have the instincts and habits in order so that we are always acting in accordance with our second nature, a second nature that has been formed by "doing all the drills", living the right way, as children of God being formed increasingly in His likeness.

What are these drills? What habits do we need to work on? How do we attain the disponibilité or relaxed awareness, that Sam Wells writes of? Listen in!
