Can choosing virtues over values be the key to a fulfilling life? In this episode of the Theory to Action podcast, we boldly argues that virtues, with their deep-rooted historical significance, provide a clear path to genuine happiness and a connection with our creator.   

Our book of the day is Back to Virtue but we hear from both Russel Kirk and Peter Kreeft which makes this episode a great one two punch.  

Listeners will gain actionable insights on how to work in harmony with their creator, ultimately leading to a lifelong journey towards true happiness. 

Key Points from the Episode:

  • As society faces unprecedented levels of adult unhappiness, even post-pandemic, Let challenge the notion of "values" as an ambiguous and often empty concept. 
  • By examining survey data and societal shifts, we highlight the increasing darkness permeating our culture and contends that virtues offer the specificity and time-tested wisdom needed to navigate these turbulent times.
  • Drawing from our previous episode which we link the pursuit of virtues to the foundation of a truly flourishing life. 
  • We emphasize that only by embracing virtues can we find clarity and purpose in today's complex world. 

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that dares to push back against modern societal norms and advocates for the timeless power of virtues.
