In this episode, we introduce Jack Baumgartner’s oil painting “His Eyes Are Like a Fiery Flame” (2024). This gets us into the book of Revelation, painting in eternity, a poem by R. S. Thomas, symbolism in art, time and eternity, and God’s love for the land. Jack shares some background to his painting, as well as part of his process when creating. Seth and Sam layer the conversation with their own observations and questions. Check out the chapter headings below to see the ground we cover.
