Ep 132: What Rocky Balboa Can Teach Us About Virtue


Listen Later

Every 12-year-old boy (and most everyone else too) should watch Rocky for what it teaches us about Virtue.

Join Rafe this week as he discusses the 1976 Academy Award Winning Movie Rocky and how it shows that to fulfill your calling to become what you were made to become, you must discipline yourself to practice virtue.  

Rocky is a story of a good man who could be Great, if he would only practice discipline and virtue.  In it we learn to see that we must work to fulfill the nature of our design and that a man must fight his dragon, even if he knows that he will lose.

The consequence of taking on this yoke is the fulfillment of the person and the growth of those around you; Love is the result.
