Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

You Believe in Myths: David Russell Mosley on Myth, Fatherhood, and Classical Education
Q: What is myth for you, and why should fathers engage with myth and literature with their sons?
Myth is a way to engage truth through story rather than through didactic exposition. It allows readers to inhabit different perspectives, understand complex realities, and see meaning in the world. For fathers, engaging with myths and great literature with their sons is essential to transmit culture, cultivate virtue, and guide formation beyond mere academic achievement.
You Believe in Myths: David Russell Mosley on Myth, Fatherhood, and Classical Education
Q: Tell us about your conversion and how your path to faith began.
David describes a gradual journey from a pagan curiosity and exposure to popular culture of the 1990s to a personal encounter with faith at a Christian music festival, followed by baptism and a decision to pursue ministry. He emphasizes how his reading, community, and practical church experiences shaped his belief and led him toward theology, liturgy, and education.
What Aristotle Got Wrong About Work (and What Christ Set Right) w/ Jacob Imam
Q: How does the college view debt and value for its graduates?
Graduates can finish with two certifications and no debt, and the model emphasizes returning to one's community with skills that serve others rather than leaving to chase distant opportunities.
What Aristotle Got Wrong About Work (and What Christ Set Right) w/ Jacob Imam
Q: What is the role of hands-on work in education according to the speakers?
Hands-on labor grounds theoretical learning, brings meaning to study, and helps students develop virtue, competence, and leadership by integrating mind and body.
What Aristotle Got Wrong About Work (and What Christ Set Right) w/ Jacob Imam
Q: Why did the College of St. Joseph the Worker place trades at its core?
Because combining skilled trades with liberal arts creates a financially viable path that also allows students to experience and apply wisdom in practical ways, countering the prevailing trend of debt-heavy, ideologically skewed higher education.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sword&Spade
