Playing happens in boundaries. Whether it’s poetry, the playground, or praying the Psalms: things get interesting when we explore the edges. Come hear from Bowser Hutson and Sophie Killingley as they kick around a main idea from their upcoming Play Book.

We call Hutchmoot a “conference for everyone,” so it follows that this is a “podcast for everyone.” This series features sessions recorded at the Rabbit Room’s annual conference which celebrates art, music, story, and faith in all their many intersections.

Play Has Boundaries. And Pushes Them. (Katy Bowser Hutson, Sophie Killingley)

Tolkien famously described world history as a “long defeat,” since human efforts to overcome evil are ultimately doomed to failure. But the gospel still offers hope because of Christ’s ultimate victory. Endo’s novel, Silence, depicts the crushing challenges of bringing the gospel to Japan; Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev buckled under the horrors of Stalin’s Soviet regime and expresses his pain through his 7th Symphony. However, in different ways, both articulate hope against the odds.

Far from being an escape from reality, art can be an invitation to align with reality, both for the maker and the recipient. But developing a taste for reality requires both courage and good cheer. The life of Saint Lawrence, patron saint of comedians, will provide a starting point for a discussion of courage, humor, holiness, and creativity.

Do you write, sing, play music, paint, sculpt, dance, etc., but you’re afraid to say you’re an artist? You are not alone! Hear from panelists who have struggled themselves with owning their artistry and still struggle sometimes. Bring questions and expect diverse answers, knowing we are in this together, figuring this thing out called artistry.
