HTA Lecture: “Retrieving Virtue: Moral Character Development as an Act of Worship”
March 2 @ 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Evan Lenow will present the 2026 Humanities Teacher Award lecture for Mississippi College titled “Retrieving Virtue: Moral Character Development as an Act of Worship.”
Socrates famously stated, “The unexamined life is not worth living.” Rather than the endless pursuit of vanity, Socrates called his students to aspire to virtue and character in order to become better people. The ancient quest for virtue needs a revival because we will flourish when we chase after the virtues that reflect the epitome of humanness.
The lecture will take place on the Mississippi College campus on March 2, 2026, at 3:30 p.m.
