Surprised by Agape (Justin Wiggins)
Saturday Sep 29, 2018
Saturday Sep 29, 2018
This is not a typical edition of the All About Jack podcast. Most of my shows are interviews with authors about a book completely focused on C.S. Lewis or one of his friends. This program features an interview with Justin Wiggins about his autobiographical book entitled Surprised by Agape. As you will hear in the interview (and notice from the book cover), C.S. Lewis had a profound impact on his life. This brief work also shares how George MacDonald and the music of Switchfoot also played a role in his life; which included struggles that Justin had with unbelief and suicidal thoughts.

Taylor Colloquium 2018 Panel Discussion, pt. 2
Thursday Sep 20, 2018
Thursday Sep 20, 2018
What follows is the second and final part of the panel discussion that was originally recorded as part of the Lewis and Friends Colloquium held at Taylor University (Upland IN) May 31 – June 3 2018. The Biennial colloquium attracted over 150 participants for keynote lectures, paper presentations, workshops, round-table discussions, and creative presentations on the theme “The Faithful Imagination.” Joe Ricke moderated the session with these keynote speakers: Stephen Prickett, Crystal Downing, Joe Christopher, Crystal Hurd, and Charlie Starr. The remaining questions from Joe Ricke are shared, along with three questions that came from the audience. ALSO, at the end of this podcast, I share some audio from a special session that discussed an unpublished story from C.S. Lewis entitled "The Quest for Belharis."

Even though each of these individuals were all present in the auditorium where the event was held, some did have to share a microphone and so, on occasion, the audio quality is briefly not as clear.
