What does it mean to live a good life? That timeless question guided the great minds of ancient Greece—Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, the Stoics, and the Cynics. In our October gathering, Charis Caldwell helps us recover these classical philosophical paths not as abstract theories, but as grounded practices in the art of living. We’ll examine how Socratic questioning, Platonic ideals, Aristotelian ethics, and Stoic resilience offer tools for navigating chaos, cultivating character, and clarifying purpose. These thinkers didn’t just speculate—they walked their talk. In a world overrun with opinions, information, and performative outrage, what can the ancients teach us about humility, courage, and inner freedom? Whether you’ve studied philosophy or simply wrestled with life’s big questions, this message offers a bridge from ancient thought to modern need—a pilgrimage for the mind and heart alike.
