Today, many people find it easy to be cynical. Is hope foolish and irrational, or is it a virtue we need?

Scott Samuelson, philosopher at Iowa State, and beloved lecturer, will explore the topic of hope in a three part series on the place of faith, hope, and love in the world today.

Scott is the author of several acclaimed books, including The Deepest Human Life and Rome as a Guide to the Good Life. He has been published in The Atlantic, Washington Post, and other outlets.
