Description:
We live in a time of ‘lost connections’ in a variety of ways, including the isolation from mental health challenges as well as a distorted focus on individualism. A renewed attention to character and the centrality of friendship can offer connections that help us live well and cope with the inevitabilities of suffering in human life. This Psychological Humanities and Ethics lecture will address the interconnections of psychology, philosophy, and theology, in order to recover themes of character and friendship important to human flourishing.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe and diagnose trends in our culture that are contributing to fractured relationships and a fraying social fabric
- Discuss the interconnections of fields and practices that are often kept separate (e.g., psychology, philosophy, theology)
- Analyze the themes (e.g., character, friendship) that are important to human flourishing
