It is popular today in Christian circles to talk about the importance of Truth. But in doing so, we have overlooked that value to which Truth is inextricably wedded: Beauty. Beauty, historically understood, was an objective reality, a value that was linked to the True and the Good. Encountering Beauty was considered integral to cultivating our moral imaginations and human flourishing. The secular age, however, has over the last century consigned Beauty solely to the subjective, replacing Beauty with preference and entertainment. As a result, not only has our art, architecture, and music degenerated, but our world has become more coarse, flippant, and cynical.
Dr. Stephen Turley joins me on the broadcast today to talk about how classical Beauty can be recovered in our own time and reawaken the virtues that are indispensible to a flourishing society.
