Aquinas is well-known for his account of moral knowledge in terms of the natural law, which is internal to our endowment as rational animals. Just as famous is Aquinas’s teaching that our ultimate happiness lies beyond human nature, in the vision of God, through the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity. Join us for a talk by Dr. Matthew Minerd as he unfolds how nature and grace, the human and the divine, meet in Aquinas’s teachings on human life and action.
