OUR BLOG
Welcome to the Logos Institute blog! As a learning organization, Logos Institute is committed to continuous development: of our own perspectives, skills, and aptitudes, and of our clients’, friends’ and the community’s as well. We hope that this blog provokes discussion, deliberation, and some fresh ideas.
Each of the Logos Institute Fellows who post here has a particular set of interests, expertise, and passions. We hope to share them with you, and to encourage you to share your interests, expertise, and passion. Sometimes the posts will be evergreen, on important but timeless topics. Other times they will seize on breaking news to find teachable (dare I say, learnable?) moments that help us better make sense of what’s going on around us. And sometimes we’ll just exercise whimsy.
We invite you to join us on this journey.
Yours Truly,
The Logos Team
