  • Summary

  • On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Dr. Wesley Vander Lugt about his new book, Beauty is Oxygen. It’s a conversation about how our souls crave beauty, and how we need beauty both to help us breathe and to help us build. Among the topics we discuss:

    • What it means to say that "beauty is oxygen"
    • The way beauty meets those who are "buffered", "battered", and "bored"
    • Criticisms of the concept of beauty as too narrow
    • The relationship between the beauty of the world and the beauty of God (or, why John Piper might be wrong about it)
    • The relationship of beauty and justice
    • How we might grow in attentiveness and awe
