Welcome to World Upside Down, the official podcast of Indianapolis Theological Seminary, where we engage in deep theological discussions on ”load-bearing” doctrines of the Christian faith. Each episode delves into a key Scriptural topic from a unique perspective, providing valuable insights for current and future ministry leaders.
Why Beauty Matters in the Kingdom of God | Dr. Jim Spiegel | S3E10
Is beauty simply a matter of personal taste, or are some things objectively beautiful? Dr. Jim Spiegel joins Nicholas Piotrowski and Roger Williams to explore the place of beauty in the Kingdom of God. Drawing from his new book, A Thing of Beauty, Dr. Spiegel challenges Christians to recover a biblical appreciation of beauty and recognize how God is at work in making things beautiful.

We explore how Jesus’ resurrected body relates to the future resurrection of believers, how the Holy Spirit brings the realities of the new creation into the present, and what all of this means for Christians living in the kingdom now. Interested in going deeper?
