Our 21st Acton University is now in the books, and I leave last week deeply grateful.
Each year, I am encouraged by the remarkable diversity of those gathered at #ActonU. Not merely diversity of background or nationality, but diversity of experience, vocation, tradition, and perspective. What unites this community is something deeper: a shared commitment to the principles of ordered liberty and to the difficult but necessary work of building a society that is both free and virtuous.
From the beginning, Acton University has sought to convene men and women from around the world who are willing to think seriously about the moral foundations of a free society. It is a kind of ecumenism of truth-seeking, where people of many faiths, traditions, and walks of life gather around enduring questions of human dignity, freedom, responsibility, and the common good.
I am especially grateful to this year’s plenary speakers: @magattew, Daron Babcock and Darris Lee, @Doug_DeVos, and @DavidBahnsen.
Magatte: Thank you for the reminder that sound economics is not an abstract concern. It matters for human flourishing. It matters because free enterprise, rightly understood, respects the dignity, creativity, and responsibility of the human person, and only this system can provide the starting point for so many seeking a better life.
Daron and Darris: Your story is inspiring. @BontonFarms is a shining example of what happens when communities work together and those closest to the problem are empowered to solve it. I’m excited to see how your community continues to grow and flourish.
Doug: Thank you for the encouragement that America’s best days are still ahead. We must cultivate the atmosphere in our communities and the attitude that leads us to take action in solving the problems of our society and building the future. Thank you for embodying this ethic in our community and for inspiring all at AU to take this perspective back to their own.
David: In a world that does not always invite hope, thank you for the poignant reminder. Against the posturing of so many politicians and activists, it is the entrepreneur who truly invests in the future and embodies the hope and belief that helps to move society forward. We’re grateful to have you in this movement, and look forward to advancing the cause of freedom far into the future.
Thank you to all who joined us in Grand Rapids this year. The responsibility is ours to build a free and virtuous society, and we look forward to hearing the stories of your work in building it.

It's been an amazing two weeks at @A_C_C_S, @ActonInstitute's #actonu, and @JoinSCL. So many friends have heard my story about the @logresinstitute, and are excited for July 1 (application goes live). We're saving western civilization, one seminar at a time.
A perfect way to close an inspiring week at #ActonU: stirring dinner talks by @robertsirico and @DavidBahnsen.

Congrats to this year's Acton Alumni award winner, Fernando Tamara! Your work advancing the ideals of freedom and virtue in Peru is inspiring to all of us. 👏

I had the privilege of speaking at @ActonInstitute University this week on how to design an effective immigration policy to a crowd of over 100 people from all over the world.

Another #actonu is in the books! One of my favorite things was getting the chance to interview @lukeburgis and Adam Macleod! A fascinating conversation on technology, desire, and the law!
@ActonInstitute

Had an excellent week at #ActonU, meeting with a wide range of attendees (~800 in attendance from 80 countries), challenged and invigorated by solid presentations, and now inspired to get back to the work of advancing a free and virtuous society.
Thank you, @ActonInstitute!
It was such an honor and privilege to to deliver the final plenary session at @ActonInstitute #actonu last night. We defenders of the free and virtuous society are bonded in mission and friendship. We are equipped with truth and hope. And the future is ours.

Excellent speech by @DavidBahnsen on free enterprise, entrepreneurship, finance, and the good of business to close out #ActonU last night. I can't wait until it's available for all to view and hear.

Full house (i.e., people sitting on the floor) for the #ActonU panel on #fusionism. A lively discussion!

Fusionism. What it is and what isn’t…and what it never was. At #ActonU with @McGillPatterson @sladesr @kvallier and Jason Duncan.

Outstanding presentation on Robert Woodson and his ideas of neighborhood stabilization by @LibertyEthics at #ActonU today! The audio should be available in a few short weeks…

Day 3 of #ActonU was filled with friends, enlightening conversations, and a stirring plenary address by @Doug_DeVos!
Catching the panel with @lukeburgis, @adammacleod, and Dan Churchwell at @ActonInstitute ‘s #actonu before my flight to @A_C_C_S! “The Soul of the Machine: Technology, Desire, and the Free Society.”


“Democracy can be a good, so long as it is built on a right understanding of human nature.” - Dr. Micah Watson at #actonu in “C. S. Lewis on Politics and Principles.”

Some of my favorite moments from Day 3 at @ActonInstitute ‘s #actonu. @DanHugger, @TPCarney, and Stephen Barrows.
Also - turns out celebrating a World Cup win with 100+ Brazilians in a piano bar dancing to Don’t Stop Believin’ is my new favorite thing.

Wonderful #ActonU

At #ActonU you might be interviewed about liberty and virtue while on the escalator, like @marcelvanhattem!
