Sumario:This work is devoted to articulating the connection between the nature, value, and virtues of faith and humility. The goal is to understand both in a way that does not discriminate between religious andmundane contexts, between sacred and secular. It arises from a conviction that these two character traits are important to a flourishing life, and intimately related to each other in such a way that the presence of one demands the presence of the other. In particular, the book defends the claim that each of these virtues provides a necessary, compensating balance to the potential downside of the other virtue. The result of such an inquiry, if that inquiry is successful, will require a reorienting of discussions surrounding faith, including the interminable and, to my mind, stagnant debates about the relationship between faith and reason.
