Sorry for the slight delay - here's episode 3 of season 7! In this episode, host Kent Reeder chats with magician and former Hearts & Hands Podcast president Dan Jaspersen. This episode includes a beautiful bit of writing by Pastor Luke Italiano from this blog post and an instrumental setting of the hymn "May We Your Precepts Lord Fulfill" by "The Lutheran Pianist" Steven Springborn.
The episode is built around this communion-related quote from CS Lewis: "Yet I find no difficulty in believing that the veil between the worlds, nowhere else (for me) so opaque to the intellect, is nowhere else so thin and permeable to divine operation. Here a hand from the hidden country touches not only my soul but my body. Here the prig, the don, the modern , in me have no privilege over the savage or the child. Here is big medicine and strong magic…the command, after all, was Take, eat: not Take, understand." - CS Lewis, Letters to Malcolm
