The Diner Episode 2

Who should read The Ethics of Beauty?
5

Welcome to The Diner! Come join us for a Slice of Pie: Not a feast, just a mental snack. A deep thought to chew on from a big, meaty book.

It’s Mother Culture served from a short order kitchen.

For season one we’ll be talking about The Ethics of Beauty by Timothy Patitsas — that huge intimidating popular theology book that you wish you had time to read.

Sit at the counter of our virtual diner and let us serve you a slice of pie. Mental pie! It’ll go good with a cup of coffee, then you get your refreshed self back to the fray with a few new beautiful thoughts to think.

In this episode we talk about who The Ethics of Beauty is written for and why that matters.

Questions to ponder:

  • Pay attention to the places where you see beauty around you.

  • Have you noticed it before?

  • How do you usually interact with it?  

  • Do you take it for granted?

  • Do you see it as a potential encounter with a personal God?

  • How does the definition of trauma as “a force-feeding from tree of knowledge of good and evil” resonate with your own life experience?
