  <abstract>"It is particularly amazing to me that Gregory of Nyssa uses only the story of Moses to illuminate nearly everything we need to understand to live virtuous, believing, faith-filled life.  The great strength of this timeless text is that readers leave leave it with the desire –and the newfound ability– to be better people. To give readers instruction and opportunities for living virtuous life is the highest calling any book can have.  And that is exactly the kind of book Gregory of Nyssa created in this work."–from the foreword by Silas House, author of C;ay's Quilt.</abstract>
