Jimmy Mitchell works with young people every day in his job as director of campus ministry at a high school in Florida. He sees their struggles to form relationships with others, to manage the growing presence of technology in their lives, to deepen their spiritual lives. He also sees their desire for the true, the good, and the beautiful, and their yearning for connection, meaning, and happiness.
Mitchell’s new book, “Let Beauty Speak: The Art of Being Human in a Culture of Noise,” is informed by his experiences working with young people, but its blueprint for a way of life has wider appeal. The principles he outlines in the book—including wonder, freedom, friendship, joy, culture, and more—empower Christians to evangelize by bringing beauty to the forefront of their lives.
In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Jimmy Mitchell about the beauty of a life well-lived, and how such a life can work as a powerful tool for evangelization.
