Introduction, Workshop 2: Moderation
In "Virtue Ethics," a Tapestry of Faith program
Moderation in all things, including moderation. — Petronius, Roman author of satires
The exploration of virtues begins with a focus on moderation, because moderation is a virtue that touches all the other virtues. In future workshops, youth will respond to questions such as "Can you be too honest?" and "What can happen if you are too forgiving?" This workshop lifts up moderation to set a tone for the entire program, to steer youth from pursuing virtues so intensely that virtuous living becomes its own vice.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.
