Fresh off the 2019 Rocky Mountain Artists' Retreat, we pick up some threads from the retreat: is "artist" something you'll be for eternity? Should you look inward or outward as you seek to answer the question, "who am I?" And what does it mean for God to redeem and perfect your creative work?
Artists need solitude to create (or “conjure”), but we need one another too. Mandy and Matt and Christina discuss finding a balance between these seemingly contradictory needs.
Dr. Michael Ward uses various writings of C.S. Lewis as literary illumination to help us understand joy and tears even more deeply.
Chase Whitney emphasizes the significance of tears as a uniquely human experience, and discusses how joy and tears can make room for each other as we seek God in our lives.
Matt, Mandy, and Christina gather together to debrief about our recent podcast guest Lancia E. Smith on the power of naming.
Join Mandy as she talks with Amanda about how we might “reclaim the holidays for [our] heart’s formation and the glory of God”.
Christina dives deep into the real meaning of Halloween. It’s not what you think.
Matt’s debut middle-grade fantasy novel, Red Rex, is here! Join Mandy and Christina as they talk with Matt about the dream, the process, the plot, the characters, the illustrations — and the footnotes.
Calvin and Hobbes, and the Spiderman question for all of us…does great responsibility come with great power?
Taylor Swift is the most popular musician since the Beatles. And Matt doesn’t understand. So he sits down with a thoughtful fan to see if she can show him the ways of the Swifties.
