When we think of wonder or beauty, we might be inclined to think in terms of an external appearance, a scene of nature or an attractive person. But what if wonder is something that grows from the inside out? What if wonder is way of seeing? And what if wonder is an interior force, one that begins in the hidden recesses of our perceptions? Today, on the show I'm talking with Oregon based, poet, writer and critic, Paul J Pastor. Paul serves HarperCollins as senior acquisitions editor for their Zondervan imprint, and also serves as a contributing editor for Ekstasis magazine. He's the author of several books, including Bower Lodge: Poems, and two forthcoming titles: The Locust Years and The Fire Cantos. In our conversation, Paul and I discuss the importance of learning to see as a means of engaging wonder. Drawing from the work of William Blake, Flannery O' Connor and stories from the Gospels, this episode takes us on a journey into our perceptions and invites us to reconsider beauty as more than an aesthetic experience.

John Paul Heil offers insight through a reading and discussion of his essay “Ekstasis and the Chicken Truck,” in which he offers insight into the nature of these experiences we all share, which are yet so individual to each of us.

I love today's conversation with Karen Stiller, author of the upcoming book “Holiness Here,” as she shares her journey of seeking freedom from anxiety, fear, and worry, and stepping into a life of courage and risk-taking anchored in faith. As a pastor's wife, Karen's experiences offer profound insights into the intersection of grief, trust, and community in the journey of holiness. Karen's story takes an unexpected turn with the passing of her husband from transplant lymphoma in the brain, a rare complication arising from a kidney transplant. In the midst of profound loss and grief, Karen grapples with questions of trust in God's sovereignty and the role of community in navigating life's deepest valleys. Drawing inspiration from biblical narratives, including Jesus' encounter with Mary and Martha after Lazarus's death, Karen reflects on the raw honesty of wrestling with faith amidst pain and doubt. Through her journey, she discovers the transformative power of believing even in the midst of unbelief, and the profound truth that God sees our pain and walks with us through it. In her book coming out next week, “Holiness Here,” Karen dives into the essence of a holy life and the grace that God extends to each of us to live it out. Through cycles of growth and spiritual obligation, Karen invites readers to explore what it truly means to embrace holiness in the midst of life's challenges. Join us as we journey with Karen Stiller through the depths of grief, the courage of trust, and the transformative power of holiness in everyday life. Tune in for a conversation that will inspire and uplift your soul. Bio: Karen Stiller is a senior editor of Faith Today magazine and writes frequently for magazines like Reader's Digest, Ekstasis, In Trust, and other publications across North America.

Guest Bio: Rachel Marie Kang is a New York native, born and raised just outside of New York City. She is the founder of The Fallow House and author of Let There Be Art. Rachel's writing has been featured in Christianity Today, Proverbs 31 Ministries, Ekstasis, She Reads Truth, and (in)courage. She lives and writes in North Carolina with her husband and two children.   Show Summary: When thinking about creativity, we often consider writers, painters, artists, poets, and many more to be the real “creative” people. What if we told you that there was so much more to the ways we express ourselves through different mediums of art? What if our ultimate Creator blessed us with all different forms of creating? Author and poet, Rachel Marie Kang, is excited to share a new outlook on the way we think about art. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Adkins as they explore this new way of thinking on God Hears Her.   Notes and Quotes:  “There's something really beautiful about creating in the private.” –Eryn Adkins  “It's scary to be alone with your thoughts.” –Eryn Adkins  “That's how you grow, you start small.” –Rachel Marie Kang  “He is creating light as boundary, so that light has a purpose.” –Rachel Marie Kang “I am pushing back the darkness in my own life.” –Rachel Marie Kang “He is always creating. He is always moving. He is always working. He is pushing back the darkness always.” –Rachel Marie Kang “You have something to offer.” –Rachel Marie Kang   Verses:  John 1:3 Genesis 1:2-3 Genesis 4:1 Lamentations 3   Links:  Rachel's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelmariekang/ Let There Be Art by Rachel Marie Kang: Amazon God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/  God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc  Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/   MB01LYXLZUZQCJI

In this episode, I talk with Arthur about his spiritual background, the nature of non-dualistic thinking and the concept of art set free from the ego. If you've followed the podcast this season, you'll recall that woven throughout our conversations has been the underlying theme of restoration for the heart of the artist. As we approach the final episodes of this discussion, I wanted to revisit our theme in a more direct way. So I asked Arthur to speak into each thread of restoration, wounded healers, existing in the splice and re-storying the narratives we believe.
