Life Worth Living Book (link is external)
Your life is too important to be guided by anything less than what matters most. Around the world and across human history, the same questions have challenged us: what should we hope for? How should we live? How do we respond to suffering? How do we flourish? Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz have gathered responses to these and other questions and reflected on the different answers that have informed various faiths and cultures. They have led students through these findings in one of Yale University’s most popular courses.
