Values vs. Virtues: The Heart of Living Well

In today's culture, great emphasis is placed on having the right values. However, merely possessing the right values does not necessarily lead to living a virtuous life. The distinction between values and virtues is critical, as values alone may not translate into virtuous actions. The podcast discusses how virtues, such as chastity and courage, are essential for translating values like fidelity and honesty into lived experiences. Dr. Edward Sree emphasizes the importance of cultivating virtues alongside values for a truly fulfilling and morally upright life.
