Stoicism Meets Christianity: Insights from Dr. Regan Lance Reitsma

That desire to gain perspective and to critique our own react to our lives and to the world we live in is a profound similarity.
What happens when ancient Stoic philosophy intersects with Christian teachings? In this engaging episode of the Stoic Solutions Podcast, host Justin Vacula sits down with Dr. Regan Lance Reitsma, an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at King's College, to explore this fascinating convergence. Dr. Reitsma brings his extensive background in moral psychology and practical rationality to the table, making for a deeply enriching conversation.
They dive into topics like gratitude, prudence, integrity, and humility, shedding light on how both Stoicism and Christianity approach these virtues. The discussion doesn't stop there; they also cover goal-setting, minimalism, and finding meaning in one's vocation. Dr. Reitsma's perspective on the trichotomy of control, self-discipline, and moral rigorism offers listeners practical tools for navigating life's challenges.
Whether you're curious about how these two philosophies can coexist or looking for actionable advice to enrich your daily life, this episode has something for everyone.
