Christendom College Lectures

Dr. Mark Wunsch received his undergraduate degree in Denver, and pursued his graduate degree in the Angelicum in Rome. Since 2005, he has taught and served in multiple administrative roles, associate professor of philosophy, academic dean, director of Rome academics, and chair of the philosophy department. He has taught all six of our core Philosophy classes here at Christendom. 

In this Principles Live Lecture, he first addresses Aristotle's novel thesis: only the virtuous man can be happy. Secondly, he will delve into Nicomichean Ethics, and conclude with how Aristotle's thought can be reconciled with Christian morality.

What is Christendom College Lectures?

At Christendom College, we believe education is more than gaining knowledge—it’s about pursuing true wisdom. As a Catholic liberal arts college, our mission is to guide students on the path to Christian wisdom, grounded in the love and contemplation of both natural and divinely revealed truth. This journey doesn’t happen in the classroom alone. Through vibrant campus life, community events, and spiritual opportunities, students are encouraged to cultivate the moral virtues and habits of Christian living. These virtues prepare them to properly order the material and spiritual goods of life, equipping them for a higher purpose. To enrich this formation, the college regularly hosts speakers who inspire and challenge our students to grow in mind, heart, and soul. We invite you to be part of this journey by joining us for these thought-provoking lectures. These talks provide a chance to engage with the ideas shaping our students and to explore how faith and reason together lead to truth. Come listen, learn, and grow with us.
