An American traveling in Africa hired a guide to lead him through the jungle to a remote village. In the mid afternoon the guide stopped and began to set up camp for the night. The American impatiently asked why they weren't taking advantage of the remaining daylight to make more progress towards their destination. "We have traveled very fast and must allow time for our souls to catch up with our bodies" replied the guide. During this advent season, when we think about the significance of the word becoming flesh, we trying to make space to allow our souls to catch up to our bodies. Our theme is "The Incarnation: An Artful Evening." Philip Zaleski Editor, The Best American Spiritual Writing, described our first guest, Luci Shaw as "one of America’s most thoughtful spiritual poets."

"An Artist Is Like God." Nigel Goodwin Podcast: Live At Hales Segment 1 of 3

Filmmaker Ingmar Bergman is known for his explorations of disbelief in film. Yet recently Bergman wrote the following. "Art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, generating and degenerating itself. In former days, the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God. He lived and died without being more or less important than other artisans: eternal values, immortality and masterpiece were terms not applicable in his case. The ability to create was a gift. In such a world flourished vulnerable and natural humility." In this podcast we discuss "An Artist is like God," with Nigel Goodwin. Nigel's career as an actor started after graduating from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, famous for graduates Laurence Olivier, Albert Finney and many more.
