What is Virtue? - The Teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas

✝️ What is Virtue? – An Introduction to the Teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas

Growing in virtue lies at the very heart of Christian life — but what does this truly mean in practice? 📖

🤔 Questions We'll Explore

• What exactly is a virtue?
• How do we go about acquiring virtues?
• Where must we strive through our own effort, and where does divine grace come to our aid?

These profound questions have occupied philosophers and theologians throughout the ages. St. Thomas Aquinas devoted himself deeply to their study, and through his remarkable body of work he left an enduring foundation for Christian ethics that remains profoundly relevant today.

🎓 The Speaker

Fr. Mikael Schink SJ will guide us through Saint Thomas's rich teaching on virtue, exploring both its classical roots and its significance for our lives now.
