Irresistible Beauty with Samuel Parkison

In this episode Caleb discusses the relationship between Christ's divine beauty and regeneration and faith with Samuel Parkison (PHD, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) via Parkison's new book, Irresistible Beauty: Beholding Triune Glory in the Face of Jesus Christ. In this conversation, an important argument is made for appreciating the aesthetic dimension of saving faith and how it compels faith-filled worship of the living God as delight in and desire for true beauty.
