Don't Forget Your Telos

The Greek word, telos, means "end." But, as Joel Biermann explains, it means a lot more when we understand telos as the term that describes a thing's purpose or goal. Each person has an ultimate telos, but every one of us also have vocations and responsibilities to fulfill, each with its own telos. Keeping your telos sharply in focus helps you decide what to be doing and how to be doing it-a way of living that is especially important for parents.
