Title: The Beauty We Just Heard Solved Everything
Description:
It’s 12:54 p.m. on June 21st. Krystal and I are walking the grounds of Magnolia Plantation, right after the gospel concert you’ll hear in the next episode. This short reflection captures what we were feeling in real time—how art, suffering, history, and beauty collided into something holy. Krystal joins me for a rare recorded moment, and what she shares about spiritual longing and beauty hit me deep.
I talk about:
- The moment the gospel singer mentioned Sierra Leone right after we did
- Crying for 40 minutes straight during the concert
- Why this moment reminded me of how much fighting we carry
- Krystal’s reflection on creativity, beauty, and spiritual longing
- The undeniable witness of enslaved people singing to God
- How music from suffering still preaches the gospel
