Color, Language, and Faith - The Power of Words - Ep. 207

In this week’s episode, Ken takes us on an unexpected journey that starts with a simple thought about colors—blue in particular—and leads us into a deeper conversation about the language we use to describe our experiences, especially those tied to the gospel. What happens when a culture doesn’t have a word for a concept, like the Himba people and the color blue? How does that shape what we’re even able to see or feel?

Ken explores the limits and power of language, drawing on everything from Portuguese idioms to unique expressions in American Sign Language, and then connects it all to spiritual understanding. Are there gospel principles or divine experiences we simply don’t have words for? And if so, how could that shape or even limit our faith? As Ken ponders the phrase “your days are known” from church history, he invites us to consider whether our spiritual vocabulary might be missing something essential.

Tune in for a thoughtful and intriguing solo episode that will leave you questioning the words you use and the experiences you’ve never been able to fully describe. What divine truths might await if we open ourselves to concepts we can’t yet name?
