I had the privilege of meeting Rich Mullins once at a concert, about 18 months before he died, and the encounter with his music changed me forever. To celebrate Rich's 70th birthday today, I'm sharing this beautiful piece in Plough Quarterly by Bethel McGrew 🎗: share.google/QRrKN909Tb5rti…

I’m very pleased to share this second episode of Another Life, my podcast Plough Quarterly . For this episode I traveled to Christ Church Oxford to speak with Andrew Davison about, amongst other things, why people are returning to church. Do give it a listen! plough.com/en/topics/fait…

Today is publication day for J. C. Scharl’s (Jane Clark Scharl) The Death of Rabelais—the long-awaited sequel to Sonnez Les Matines, though it stands boldly (and hilariously) on its own two feet. Which means that even if you haven’t read the first verse play, you can most definitely read

I much enjoyed talking to Joy Marie Clarkson, one of the people behind the current renaissance of Plough Quarterly.

“I do think that the idea that grace perfects nature without abolishing it is very important and it’s perfectly illustrated in Christ that he’s no less human and natural for being God.” Andrew Davison plough.com/en/topics/fait…
