Chase Spears hosts Dr. Joshua Bowman, Executive Director of The Ciceronian Society, to explore how Christian friendship fosters moral strength. They discuss oases—communities that combat isolation and nurture virtues like resolve, drawing from Hannah Arendt and C.S. Lewis. Bowman shares insights on faith, fatherhood, and the church’s role in cultural renewal.
