GHI 203 - Honor and Virtue Seminar

Credits: 2

Examines what it means to live a life of honor, as defined by the Scriptures and by the historic Christian traditions and practices knows as the virtues. Students will be introduced to various cultural and philosophical definitions of honor, analyzing these approaches even as they are encouraged to define “honor” for themselves. Potential challenges to the development of honor and virtue will also be discussed. This will culminate in an in-depth exploration of the three Theological Virtues and the four Cardinal Virtues as the keys to an embodied life of honor, with particular emphasis on how this relates to their own vocations and Christ-honoring lives of service.
