Reviews

"""It could be argued that Kirk's Vision of God is the single most significant essay on moral theology written by an Anglican in the twentieth century. . . . It is effectively a prolegomenon to virtue ethics, which, since the advent of Alasdair MacIntyre's After Virtue, has once again taken pride of place. But Kirk's argument also directs us towards an integrated vision of theology, where moral, ascetic and doctrinal thought coalesce within one context."" Stephen Platten, in Theology, January 2021 ""We have never read any theological work which has a more direct bearing on practical problems of ecclesiastical statesmanship and religious policy."" Times Literary Supplement ""A great book."" Expository Times    "
