Political landscapes, social lives, and cultural influences all shape our view of reality. Many of us live under the impression that humanity is limited to pleasure, utility, autonomy, and power. Yet, there exists a witness that challenges these popularly held views.
This witness lives in a silent, ordered, and "useless" life that reminds man of his eternal destiny. This witness is a cloistered nun.
Guys, on this episode, Logos dives into an article we found interesting where the author writes about the conception of a Nun within a "liberal society." Who is a nun? Does she do anything? Does she live up the liberal model of happiness? Questions like these mentioned and more are covered in this episode.

On this episode, Logos Podcast contemplates another painting. Netflix, Van Gogh, and the New York Times have covered the artwork we are assessing: The Storm at the Sea of Galilee. The painter: Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn. According to the tales of his time, he was an ominous man, like many prominent historical figures. This 17th-century painter changed the landscape of Dutch Artisanship and continues to be a significant influence today.
Yet, his painting draws us into his contemplative life. As an artist of Christian upbringing, it seems fitting that his painting surrounded a lot of biblical imagery. These paintings include The Return of the Prodigal Son, The Stoning of Saint Stephen, The Raising of the Cross, and the one we are doing today!
Guys, this painter is one who suffered for his love of beauty. There is an important listen to this painting and art in general.
As we move along this reflection, this line came to mind time and time again: “Man does not live off bread alone.” Indeed, mans soul is propelled by beauty into the mystery of its source, Jesus Christ. We hope that you feel the same way after entering our discussion. God Love You!

On this episode, Logos brings its good Ol'fashion cocktail of philosophy, science, and theology and, of course, garnishing of humor! What's that? "On the rocks please", you say?
Friend's, this is a dense one...we are not going to lie. Logos attempts to give a comprehensive, yet approachable analysis of materialism, its history, its prevalence in the scientific community (particularly neuroscience), and its influence on the larger culture!
For this one, get your notebooks out, you might actually learn something! Above all, we hope this information helps you grow in relationship with Jesus Christ - Truth incarnate.
As always, God Bless!
