    The Ten Thousand Places Podcast

    Where do we go? What will we find? Hopefully, Jesus.... Join a former atheist, a former Protestant, and a cradle Catholic on a search to find Christ at play in ten thousand places. From metaphysics to Johnny Cash, He-Man to hermeneutics, how do Christian Catholics view the world differently and why does it matter? Take a deep dive into Catholicism and culture with friends Lewis Pearson, the philosopher, Alex Giltner, the theologian, and Justin Aquila, the parish pastoral minister. “[F]or Christ plays in ten thousand places, Lovely in limbs, and lovely in eyes not his To the Father through the features of men's faces.” – Gerard Manly Hopkins, SJ, “As Kingfishers Catch Fire”
