The pagesofgodlightaudio’s Podcast
Hello and welcome to the Pages of GodLight Podcast. I’m your host, Christine Whitaker. Have you ever seen how sunlight breaks through a patch of trees and creates a circle of brightness that seems almost otherworldly? Like a sacred space, so illuminated the world seems to glow? C.S. Lewis described these as patches of GodLight. I have been a book lover ever since I learned to read, and when I pick up a book, over and over, I see glimmers of meaning within the pages that stop me in my tracks and make me pause and take in what I’ve come upon, just like those spots of brilliant light. In this podcast, Pages of GodLight, my hope is in these conversations, as we meet authors and creators and talk through the pages of books, you too will stumble upon bright spots of words and carefully delivered messages that open you up to experiencing the light that is all around us and waiting to be found.
