Matt Capps: "We’ve Lost Our Sense of Awe and Wonder" - EP 138

Christ and Culture

For a long time, beauty has been “the Cinderella step-sister to truth and goodness.” Pastor Matt Capps wants that to change. He joins us to discuss art, aesthetics, and the Christian life. He explains what beauty is, where it comes from, and why humans have the capacity to experience and create beautiful things. He then connects these conversations to Christian theology, spiritual formation, and even worship spaces. (The conversation begins at 8:30.) Plus, in “Headlines” (1:20), Dr. Keathley discusses whether Christians should be “welcoming and affirming.” And in “On My Bookshelf” (27:00), Matt recommends some books he’s reading right now. - Pre-register for Exploring Personhood: iamgoi.ng/personhood24 - Visit our website: https://cfc.sebts.edu/ - Support the work of the Center: https://cfc.sebts.edu/about/give/ All opinions and views expressed by guest speakers are solely their own.
