Oct 22, 2024 | rabbitroom.com | Karissa Riffel

Karissa Riffel reflects on the importance and theology roots of beauty itself.
Navigating Suburbia with Kids

Jul 30, 2024 | rabbitroom.com | Gracy Olmstead

by Gracy OlmsteadI read once of a culture in which children learned to walk long distances from a very early age. The story went that a three-year-old would be expected to accompany a parent three miles (being carried for much of the distance), and that a four-year-old should be willing to go four (again, not entirely on foot). The five-year-old would go five miles, the six-year-old six, and so on. The older the child, the greater their ability to trek long distances with adult help and support.
Aslan's Breath-The Creation of Narnia and the Ruach Elohim

Apr 29, 2024 | rabbitroom.com | Matthew Dickerson

By Matthew DickersonA voice had begun to sing. It was very far away and Digory found it hard to decide from what direction it was coming. Sometimes it seemed to come from all directions at once. Sometimes he almost thought it was coming out of the earth beneath them. Its lower notes were deep enough to be the voice of the earth herself. There were no words. There was hardly even a tune. But it was, beyond comparison, the most beautiful noise he had ever heard.

Our Favorite Books of 2023

Jan 12, 2024 | rabbitroom.com | Nick Cave |Sean O'Hagan

We're continuing our "Best of 2023" mini-series with top picks for favorite books from Rabbit Room friends and contributors. This is the Year of Every Moment Holy Vol. 3, of course, as well as when my Saint Patrick the Forgiver and Ordinary Saints books came out, but the top books that were not by me, but that I enjoyed the most were "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell—a book that made me want to believe in Faerie—and Everything Sad is Untrue—one of the best books I ever read.
C.S. Lewis and T.S. Eliot: How Rivals Became Friends

Nov 6, 2023 | rabbitroom.com | Joel Miller

Joel J. Miller is chief product officer of Full Focus, before which he served as vice president of editorial and acquisitions at Thomas Nelson Publishers. This article originally ran at his thrice-weekly literary newsletter, MillersBookReview.com. Did Charles Williams know what would happen when he invited his mutuals, C.S. Lewis and T.S. Eliot, to tea? One suspects. Lewis had long registered disapproval of Eliot’s work. But surely they’d get on in person, no?
The Square Halo Gallery: A Place to Encounter Christian Art in the Midst of the City - The Rabbit Room

Sep 5, 2023 | rabbitroom.com | Ned Bustard

Most people have a secret dream, a far-fetched vision that they keep tucked away in a hidden room in their hearts. Some may long to be famous singers. Others might long to travel around the world or to be the monarch of an important nation. Fame, money, power—these all are rolled into one in my ridiculous fantasy. If you were to catch me in reverie, I would most likely be planning and organizing The Square Halo Museum—a beautiful collection of contemporary art inspired by the Christian faith.
Aliens, Atomics Bombs, and Artificial Intelligence - The Rabbit Room

Aug 23, 2023 | rabbitroom.com | Houston Coley

Three nuclear explosions blasted across my screen when I went to see Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City several weeks ago. One of them was in Asteroid City itself. Another was in the trailer for Oppenheimer—a movie about the man who invented the atomic bomb, so, it figures.
The Value of Bespoke Worship Songs - The Rabbit Room

Jul 24, 2023 | rabbitroom.com | Tim Briggs

Bespoke is not a word we use very much. The word means “custom made” and is most often employed in the clothing industry. I’ve never had any clothing custom-made for myself, but I understand the appeal. There is a welcomed utility in something made for the masses but there is a unique beauty in something made for the particular. With some creative license, I’d like to use this bespoke language in relation to worship music.
Reading The Bible Is Like Watching Foreign Cinema - The Rabbit Room

Jul 17, 2023 | rabbitroom.com | Houston Coley

I saw a tweet recently that said “contrary to what people on twitter will tell you, watching 1960s latvian arthouse films or whatever doesn’t make u a better, smarter or more interesting person. in fact, it usually just means you’re extra annoying]. watch whatever u like. the fast and the furious is perfectly fine.”For whatever reason, this tweet got under my skin. What’s wrong with movies made in the country of Latvia? My wife is from Czech Republic; is it “annoying” to watch movies from there, too?
