More wisdom from Peter Kreeft

 
 
 

But this terrifying power of free choice, without which there could be no Hell, is also something without which there could be no Heaven. A Heaven we did not freely choose, a Heaven that was forced on us, would not be a Heaven. It would be a prison.

—Peter Kreeft

from his book, How to Be Holy: First Steps in Becoming a Saint

SPIRITUAL GROWTH

The ever-popular and prolific Peter Kreeft says that the most important question he has written about is how one becomes holy; or to put it another way, how one becomes a saint. Kreeft stresses the simplicity of his approach to holiness, which focuses mainly on the virtue of love. Sanctity is love, he asserts, and only that can give us what we all long for—deep and lasting joy.
