Some great stuff here. It explains very well the relationship between Aristotelian virtue ethics / teleology and the writings of Paul, and the relationship of works to faith and grace, and why works are still important in light of those things, even if they don't necessarily secure your (already secured) salvation. But it is very repetitive, so much so that I stopped reading 3/4 of the way through, having felt that I had very much gotten the gist of it. I have utmost respect for Wright, so I'm wondering what his purpose was for the repetition.
