Lent | Ep.27

Art and Aesthetics | Ep.28 feat. Abe Goolsby

This week we are joined by Abe Goolsby, who gives us his insights on the realm of art. We discuss many different types of art, such as painting, poetry, and music. We seek to know what good art is and what separates good art from bad art. Can one even say that there are better and worse forms of art? This is what we seek to learn.

Lent | Ep.27

Last week was the beginning of Lent. Lent is a season in which believers remember the suffering of Christ on our account as we prepare for Easter. The tradition of Lent is not commanded in scripture, but it is a tradition derived from the traditions found in scripture to remind us of the gospel story.

Plato's Ion | Ep.26

This episode is a discussion of Plato's dialogue Ion, which is a discussion of poetry. Through our conversations we discuss Philosophy, Socratic Discussion, Poetry, and Education.

Beowulf | Ep.25

“Hwæt!” This week we take a closer look at the epic poem of Beowulf. This poem is one of the oldest examples of the English language that survives and it in itself is a masterpiece. Through it we can learn much about the origins of our language and also the culture of the English people c. 1000 A.D. This story also gives us a glimpse at how the gospel, which was newly arrived in Britain, was shaping the hearts and minds of the early English people.

Liturgy | Ep. 24 feat. Maxwill Shell

This week we are joined by our good friend Maxwill Shell to talk about liturgy. When we hear the words liturgy, our minds immediately go to worship, but there is so much more to this idea. In our discussion we seek to understand better what liturgy is, its purpose, and how it can help us as we live our lives as Christians.
