Listen "Is God hiding in good literature?"
Episode Synopsis
God is eager to reveal himself to us, and throughout the ages, humans have discovered God in many ways—including in good literature. In the Christian religion, God is described as "The Word," which seems to imply that, from the get-go, God wants us to discover him through language. In this episode of "Matters of Soul Importance," Nancy Gourde, a retired English teacher who has shared good literature with hundreds of students through the years, explores the question, "Is God hiding in good literature?" Can we find God, and learn more about the divine, through reading a good story? If you've ever been moved by a good story or have searched ardently for God, this is one "lecture" that won't put you to sleep. Visit Roxane's website: https://www.roxanesalonen.com
