Justified by Grace, Works, or Faith? – Prof. Michael Root
Published: March 25, 2026
Duration: 44:47
Prof. Michael Root argues that, in Catholic theology, we are saved wholly by the unmerited grace of Christ, and that this grace brings us into a Spirit‑given life of faith, hope, love, and morally significant works, so that eternal life is at once pure gift and, in a secondary sense, a “merited destiny.”
This lecture was given on September 9th, 2025, at North Carolina State University.
