Mark Yount

Dr. Mark Yount has degrees in Philosophy from William and Mary (BA), Villanova (MA), and the University of Colorado at Boulder (Ph.D.).  He taught philosophy at Trinity College (Hartford), St. Joseph’s (Philadelphia), and Jacksonville University.  Mark now works with Mental Health America helping homeless and at-risk people with mental health challenges apply for disability benefits.  Since joining Jacksonville’s Buckman Bridge UUC in 1997, he has given over a hundred sermons – and Mark enjoys our pulpit and our group as a second UU home.  Mark is drawing on those sermons to write Wisdom on the Way: Pointing Philosophy in a New Direction for Spirited Minds to Explore.
