5 Steps to an Artist-Friendly Church (S1 E7)
53m · PublishedIf an artist visited your church, how would they know they'd be welcome? How does a congregation become a place known for its hospitality to artists? How can church leaders foster ministries that nurture artists, so that the arts become not simply a fun add-on or gimmick, but an integral part of the life of the church? In this episode, we talk about five things we've seen churches do to become artist-friendly places.

Art vs. Sermons (S1 E5)

Is Beauty Necessary? (S1 E4)
35m · PublishedDoes beauty matter? If you're listening to this podcast, you probably think the answer is obvious. But would you go so far as to say it is essential to Christianity? Is it, in fact, impossible to do Christianity well without it? In this episode, we argue exactly that.
Are You a Secular Christian? (S1 E3)
39m · PublishedWhat is a Christian imagination? Is it the same thing as a Christian worldview?

Mythbusting the Imagination (S1 E2)
45m · PublishedImagination isn't about fantasy, nor is it the province of artists. In this episode, we debate imagination's role in how we understand the world around us...and how we live.
