Courses
The Benedictine Hallmarks course
Have you ever questioned the purpose of your life?
You are not alone. The search for purpose is an innate desire of the human condition – a desire that has been felt throughout the centuries. We are all called to be saints, but most of us have to get there by everyday means. The monks of Belmont Abbey can be your guides as they explore life’s struggles through the core values –or hallmarks– of Benedictine life.
St. Benedict and You
It can be easy to lose sight of what is important when we are living in the eye of a cultural storm. But Saint Benedict, his life, and The Rule can serve as a compass to point us in the right direction.
His life, his Rule, and his impact on education are still felt and very much needed today.
But what does that have to do with you and me? What can we gain by learning about a man who lived so long ago?
Tocqueville’s Democracy in America
Our world today is filled with news on conflict, blame, and fear; common sense and good values have seemingly lost their place in society.
It is easy to forget the principles on which our country was founded, but Alexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America can remind us. His work also provides insight into how we can improve our society by uniting our Christian beliefs and our love of liberty.
Truth and Knowledge
In a unique and captivating online course, Belmont Abbey College is shining a light on a collection of varied but similar minds to take a look at the pursuit of knowledge and the practical application of ethics and philosophy; the conclusions of which remain relevant to this day!
Is knowledge always good? What is the difference between curiosity and studiousness and why does it matter?
