Matt, Christina, and Mandy set out to list the Anselm Society’s Top 5—the “top five anythings” that the Anselm Society loves, is passionate about, and is defined by. Since Believe to See is the podcast of the Anselm Society, the Believe to See cohosts take it upon themselves to attempt to determine who or what (Tolkien? St. Anselm himself? The Chronicles of Narnia? GK Chesterton?) defines the Anselm Society.
