Investigating Benjamin Franklin's 13 Virtues

  • Summary

  • This week we go WAY back in time to examine Ben Franklin's list of 13 Virtues which he aimed to master every day. The virtues are:

    1. Temperance
    2. Silence
    3. Order
    4. Resolution
    5. Frugality
    6. Industry
    7. Sincerity
    8. Justice
    9. Moderation
    10. Cleanliness
    11. Tranquility
    12. Chastity
    13. and of course, Humility!

    Dr. Walker & Wende ponder whether one can ever truly achieve humility. (i.e. of all my fantastic virtues, humility is my greatest!) They also explore Franklin's other achievements of which there are many.

    Also mentioned in this podcast is Wende's guided monthly journal, Your Rythm of Rest and Reflection, which can be purchased HERE.
