What if the greatest art ever created was actually a love letter written directly to your soul? In this rich, soul-stirring conversation, Georgette Beck sits down with acclaimed author and theology professor Terry Glaspey — a man who has devoted his life to exploring what he beautifully calls the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and life. Terry is the author of over a dozen books, including the beloved 75 Masterpieces Every Christian Should Know, Discovering God Through the Arts, and Not a Tame Lion: A Life of C.S. Lewis. He teaches Inklings studies at Northwind Theological Seminary and is a two-time Christianity Today Book of the Year award recipient. In this episode, Terry and Georgette explore: ✦ How God — revealed first in Genesis as the Creator — wired us to encounter Him through beauty ✦ Why Jesus taught in parables and metaphors, and what that means for how we take in art ✦ The life-changing power of art, music, literature, and film to reach the places words can't ✦ How Rembrandt's Prodigal Son and a grief-soaked symphony brought tears — and healing — to broken hearts ✦ Why the church must embrace its creative people, and what "Creativity Sunday" looks like in practice ✦ How beauty can reunite a fragmented culture — and why shared art matters more than ever ✦ Terry's favorite books (Mere Christianity & T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets), his anchor verse (Revelation 21:5), and the one person from history he'd most love to meet Whether you're an artist, a book lover, someone who's been touched by a song in a dark season, or simply someone longing to encounter God more deeply — this episode is for you.
