Hello Oaks Families! For this is the week's Monday Meal, we read an essay by our Music and Conservatory Director, Mr. Kent Young. This essay came out of a series of discussions with faculty and students around the concept of Beauty and why it matters. The essay, titled "Do It Musically," is the first of a series of thoughts on the subject. You can find his essay printed in the March edition of our publication called "Cultura." Pick one up next time you're in the office. Enjoy!

The Hunt for Happiness
May 23, 2022 • Devin O'Donnell, Ben Tate
Today's Monday Meal is an essay called "The Hunt for Happiness," written by our very own Ben Tate. Mr. Tate teaches History, Bible, and Math at The Oaks. Drawing from the wisdom of past voices, as well as on the wisdom of latter ages, Ben Tate responds to perennial questions regarding human existence: what does it mean to be happy, and does happiness matter for a Christian? In a time where pleasure and feeling good is the highest good, his answer matters. You can find Ben Tate's essay printed in the this month's edition of Cultura, along with Megan Tallman's speech defending the resurrection of Christ.
