Inspired Lives: Moral Exemplars and Visionaries

We focus on the character and conscience, teaching and deeds of reputed ethical exemplars. Everyday “local heroes” working in obscurity in our communities are highlighted alongside ethical superstars like Mother Teresa, Gandhi, or King. How do exemplars embody and function as models of character development and aspiration? What lessons can we draw from these exemplary lives for our workaday lives and personal reflections.
