    Athanasius 21–23 • Augustine Letter 12 • Aquinas Q61.2

    The thread running through today’s readings is the sheer nearness of Christ: in Athanasius we watch Him destroy death by refusing both secrecy and sickness; in Augustine we see the Word’s incarnation as the moment when eternal Wisdom stepped into the world to steady even the weakest mind; and in Aquinas we watch the moral life take shape through prudence, the virtue that orders every practical decision (1 Corinthians 15:53–55).

    Readings:

    Athanasius, On the Incarnation, Sections 21–23

    Augustine, Letter 12, Sections 12–14

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 61, Article 2

    Today’s readings move from incarnation to intellect to virtue: Athanasius reveals how the Word met humanity at its lowest point, taking flesh while remaining present everywhere; Augustine begins his powerful exchange with Volusianus by showing how reason itself witnesses to God’s nature; and Aquinas opens his treatment of the cardinal virtues, explaining why prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance stand at the hinge of the moral life (1 Corinthians 1:21).

    Readings:

    Athanasius of Alexandria, On the Incarnation, Sections 15–17

    Augustine of Hippo, Letter 137 to Volusianus, Sections 1–5 (Part One)

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 61, Article 1

    The thread running through today’s readings is the sheer generosity of God: Athanasius shows how the Word pursued humanity through creation, prophecy, and finally by taking a body; Augustine teaches that prayer itself is a school of desire drawing us toward the life to come; and Aquinas explains how moral virtues differ because different parts of us need to be healed and ordered by reason (Romans 8:24).

    Readings:

    Athanasius of Alexandria, On the Incarnation, Sections 12–14

    Augustine of Hippo, Letter 130 to Proba (Final Sections)

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 60, Article 5
