Of Flames and Crowns

Ep. 19: BRENT PINKALL | The Art of Persuasive Speech


Listen Later

Those who master language with wisdom and skill shape history. Great speeches embody conviction, courage, and character, revealing the essence of men and the weight of their beliefs. A well-spoken word can ignite action, mold affections, and turn the tides of history. Properly wielded, language is the bedrock of leadership and the catalyst for great movements.

In this episode of Of Flames and Crowns, Lennox Kalifungwa sits down with Brent Pinkall to explore the art of eloquence and persuasive speech. A Junior Fellow of Rhetoric at New Saint Andrews College, Pinkall has dedicated himself to reclaiming the power and beauty of the spoken word. Holding an M.A. in Theology and Letters from NSA and a B.A. in Mass Communications from Kansas State University, he has taught and ministered across cultures, particularly in China, where he lectured on logic, epistemology, classical education, and rhetoric. His book, Redeeming the Six Arts: A Christian Approach to Chinese Classical Education, examines the profound connection between language, culture, and truth.

In an age long on words but short on wisdom, Pinkall challenges us to rediscover the transformative power of eloquence.
