  • Deep, beautiful, encouraging.

    I stumbled on this podcast a while ago and have been so blessed by the lectures. Hearing Joshua Chestnut’s talks on Paul have specifically been refreshing to my soul and have been something I needed to hear as a woman who used to be in ministry. I’m not sure how many books I’ve bought as a result of listening, but they’ve become a significant to-be-read pile. I so appreciate you guys!

  • Long live L’Abri!

    I don’t know what I would do without L’Abri. I wish I could live in this community, but the next best thing is to be able to listen to this wealth of ideas on the podcast. They remind me of all that is good and beautiful and true, the old stories and fairy tales and poetry that our culture so desperately needs. The modern American church would benefit so much from emulating their model of Christian fellowship and discipleship and their care of the life of the mind.

  • Excellent.

    These lectures are thought-provoking, informative, intelligent, and worth the time investment. Not the average evangelical flavor you'd get on Christian television or radio. Give L'Abri a try.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

To Set Out & Come Home: Two Deep Human Longings
Q: What role does community play in sustaining these longings without sacrificing growth?
A healthy community provides honest dialogue, accountability, and opportunities for risk that are grounded in relationship, so people can practice going forth and returning home together rather than in isolation.
To Set Out & Come Home: Two Deep Human Longings
Q: How can someone balance the longing for adventure with the desire for home in practical life?
By embracing rhythms and seasons that permit both exploration and rootedness, and recognizing that trust in God can reframe travel or staying as meaningful acts that lead toward flourishing.
Is Escape through Literature a Good Thing?
Q: What advice do you have on selecting what stories to engage with?
It's helpful to ask if a story is sentimental or wish fulfillment, as those may not be enriching. Aim for stories that trigger a sense of wonder.
Growing in Empathy through Reading Fiction
Q: Do you think there's a gender divide when it comes to reading fiction?
