An Examination of Conscience based on the Theological and Cardinal Virtues
“Happiness is secured through virtue;
it is a good attained by man’s own will.”
— St. Thomas Aquinas
Faith. Hope. Charity. Prudence. Justice. Temperance. Fortitude.
These virtues form the backbone of the moral life. What’s more, they are a powerful method of doing an examination of conscience.
Combining questions from a variety of respected Catholic sources spanning over a hundred years, Catholic Treehouse has produced this examination of conscience, and made it a free 3-page PDF. It also contains the traditional act of contrition, and a prayer by St. Gemma Galgani.
