Interview with author and philosopher Esther Lightcap Meek and key players in the unfolding story of Meek’s Longing to Know (Brazos, 2003), in honor of the book's twentieth anniversary. This conversation: Hear Pauline tell how LTK opened her eyes to knowing across disparate fields, from her earlier music training to her eventual doctoral work and teaching in languages—not to mention relating with children.
Longing to Know: The Philosophy of Knowledge for Ordinary People (Brazos, 2003) is a transformative book about how we go about knowing in every area of our lives. It's especially for people considering Christianity who have issues around faith and reason, certainty and doubt. The book's playful "driving analogy" is that "Knowing God is like knowing your auto mechanic." Check out Meek's work at www.estherlightcapmeek.com
