In this third episode of the five-part series, Ryan Gilmore and Jonathan Winn explore diligence as one of Oak Grove Classical Academy’s four core virtues. They discuss how true diligence differs from both laziness and workaholism, why it requires a proper perspective on work and its purpose, and how parents and educators can cultivate it through modeling, Scripture, stories, and opportunities to do difficult things. The episode ultimately considers how diligence helps students faithfully steward their time, talents, and opportunities while pursuing what is true, good, beautiful, and lasting.
Diligence matters because it is the virtue of esteeming, loving, and being zealous for what matters and what lasts in this world. That which is true, good, beautiful, and ultimately, brings God glory.
