Behold to Become

Episode Summary

Dr. Lanta Davis is an author, speaker, and wisdom seeker. She is here today to talk about her book Becoming by Beholding.

Episode Notes

Today we continue our conversation about Dr. Lanta Davis' new book called Becoming by Beholding. We begin with "bestiaries" - what they are and what their purpose was in early Christian art. We also talked about art and architecture. Does the shape and design of a church building indicate how worship is practiced inside? And how can ancient depictions of historic figures in the church reveal who significant leaders were? And what if they were women?
