Show Notes

My "guest" for this second of our book review series isn't actually a guest at all; it's our very own Brandon. 

We discuss Alan Jacobs' book "How To Think"...at some length, too! 

"How To Think": https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/551280/how-to-think-by-alan-jacobs/
Alan Jacobs' blog, "Snakes and Ladders": https://blog.ayjay.org

What is "lived experience" and how is it different from plain old "experience"? Two somewhat critical perspectives (Brandon cannot be held responsible for these; I couldn't find the article he referenced when it came time for show notes, so I had to 'do a google,' as Micah says.)

"Cruelty is Apostasy," by David French: https://frenchpress.thedispatch.com/p/cruelty-is-apostasy (maybe the best article I have read all year; cannot recommend strongly enough)
