In relationships with others, the Catholic virtue of discretion involves wisely discerning and prudently choosing words and actions that foster understanding, respect, and harmony in accordance with God's will.

We're body and soul, and if we want to be the best versions of ourselves, we need to know what we're made of so we can see how to improve. The cardinal virtues aren't four random things to get better at, they're a description of man at his peak performance.

The Christian life isn't hard, it's impossible...without grace. Grace perfects our nature, and elevates it, and three ways that grace does so are the theological virtues, without which we can't live the Christian life.

Virtuous friendship, rooted in mutual respect and a shared commitment to the good, is considered the highest form of friendship, transcending mere utility or pleasure. Aristotle categorizes friendships into three types: virtuous, useful, and pleasant. Useful friendships are based on mutual benefit, while pleasant friendships revolve around shared enjoyment. For Catholic fraternity, virtuous friendship is particularly valuable as it fosters spiritual growth, moral support, and a deeper connection through shared faith and values. By cultivating virtuous friendships, members can inspire and strengthen each other in their journey towards living out Christian principles.
