Feasting on Mystery
Lent 2026: Week 6, Episode 11
Can we find a holy balance between what we understand and what we simply wonder at? In this episode of Creative Thinking, Kim Thomas explores the feast of mystery. We discover that embracing the unseen parts of our faith does not mean abandoning reason, but rather releasing the illusion that reason alone can carry us into the presence of God.
Kim’s Notes:
“The morbid logician seeks to make everything lucid and succeeds in making everything mysterious. The mystic allows one thing to be mysterious, and everything else becomes lucid.”
G. K. Chesterton
“We live in a time when faith is thin, because our aching for what is above and beyond us has been anesthetized and our capacity for wonder reduced to clever tricks.”
Alan Jones
“We cover our deep ignorance with words, but we are ashamed to wonder;
we are afraid to whisper ‘mystery.’”
A. W. Tozer
