May 16, 2017Season 2 E 8: The Holy Spirit & The Art Of Becoming Human
Art is often viewed as being inherently spiritual. But what does it mean to describe an experience of art or beauty as "spiritual"? Is there a relationship between the spiritual experience a person has in the presence of a work of art and the Holy Spirit of Christian faith? In this episode, Stephen interviews theologian and author Steven Guthrie about these ideas as examined in Dr. Guthrie's book, Creator Spirit: The Holy Spirit & The Art Of Becoming Human.

March 22, 2017S2 E5: Beauty Will Save The World with Brian Zahnd (Part 2)
This episode concludes Stephen Roach's discussion with author and pastor Brian Zahnd about the importance of beauty within our presentation of the Christian faith. The two discuss the need to "push back against the sterility of a utilitarian, modern age that understands why we build a parking garage but doesn't understand why we build a gothic cathedral." In everything from our worship, to the art we make to the way we live our lives amidst a secularized culture, beauty is the often overlooked, yet powerful component of sharing the reality of the gospel.

March 03, 2017S2 E4: Beauty Will Save The Word with Brian Zahnd (Part 1)
The loss of beauty as a principal value has been disastrous for Western culture and especially for the church. In this episode, author Brian Zahnd discusses the importance of returning to a Christian aesthetic in presenting the gospel as a beautiful alternative to the commercialism of society.
