Guide to Stoicism

by St. George William Joseph Stock

Dive into the enduring wisdom of Stoicism with this captivating introduction to a philosophy that has transformed lives for centuries. Originating from ancient Greece and Rome, Stoicism was first articulated by Zeno, who emphasized the importance of living a life of virtue through reason. His core belief centered on the idea that our ultimate purpose is to live authentically and consistently. Cleanthes, Zenos devoted disciple, further enriched this philosophy, urging us to align our lives with the natural world. Join Bill Boerst as he explores the profound insights of Stoicism, guiding you on a journey toward a more purposeful and fulfilling life. This show includes AI-generated content.
