truth

Today at Tapestry, I wrote about how our culture or worldview affects our reading of Scripture.

"C. S. Lewis wrote, 'The character of evidence depends on the shape of the examination... It determines how much of that total truth will appear and what pattern it will suggest' (Lewis, The Discarded Image, 223). In other words, we understand truth in light of the questions we ask and how we ask them.

In this podcast, I speak with Dr. Reg Grant, professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, published novelist, actor, and apparently tap-dancer. In this part, Reg shares how two films affected his life (good timing with November's Artuality on movies!), and we begin our discussion of the artist's pursuit of truth.

Dr. Grant taught me about story structure and arc and character development.

This podcast runs four and a half minutes.
