Family Education Lessons with Aristotle (Ian Cox)
Stillwell RoomThis is a fun one! We talk about the classics a lot, read alouds, and great reads for youth, but sometimes we forget to read great depth and mission classics for ourselves. This workshop is an introduction to learning the language of the greats! As we seek to broaden and deepen our thinking, our ability to serve others increases. Sometimes all we need to turn things up a notch is a little help over that first hurdle, or a little extra insight from a mentor, or simply a group of like-minded friends to bounce ideas around with. This is what studying Aristotle has done for me and I know you’ll have a similar experience.
