Explore Mecosta House<\/h4>\n

At Mecosta House, we aim to combine with the Kirk Center\u2019s programs to foster an intellectual community dedicated to exploring the wisdom of our predecessors while forging a new conservative humanism.<\/p>\n

David Hein’s Teaching the Virtues<\/em> offers a fresh look at a perennial educational aim\u2014encouraging virtue in the next generation, and we are proud to present it as our first book.<\/p>\n
