Show Notes

We welcome back to our podcast the award-winning poet and theologian Laura Reece Hogan. Laura is the author of a study of Paul’s theology, I Live, No Longer I: Paul’s Spirituality of Suffering, Transformation, and Joy, published in 2017, and of the poetry collections Litany of Flights and Butterfly Nebula. It is that latter collection, published in 2023, we discuss today, an exploration of spiritual life by way of meditations on deep sea life and the far reaches of the cosmos. Laura is also with us in person as she is giving this semester’s distinguished Faith and Imagination Lecture at BYU.
