The Role of Habits in Virtue Formation

We all want to help students grow in character. Can the ancient philosophy of Aristotle help us? Patrick is joined by Kolby and Jason to discuss how virtue is installed through habit training. We interact with ancient and modern conceptions of habit as well as biblical and theological perspectives. Even though there is some heavy hitting philosophy, there are also practical tools for the classroom.
