EPISODE 010- Glory in the Trenches (Part 2)

Beauty and Order as Spiritual Warfare

“The Kingdom is not abstract. It’s incarnational.
It smells like bread. It sounds like singing. It looks like glory.”

In this episode, we wrap up our two-part series on beauty and order as spiritual warfare.

If Part 1 laid the foundation, Part 2 builds the house.

We finish walking through the seven key domains where beauty must be restored, with boots-on-the-ground application for men and women building Christian households that stand in the rubble of a plastic culture.


What We Cover in This Episode

🧠 Segment 4 – Education:
Beauty as soul formation.
Catechism, cursive, story, and song shape the loves of your children.

💼 Segment 5 – Work & Wealth:
Beauty as craftsmanship.
Your spreadsheets, code, gardens, and hospitality can preach glory.

🏛️ Segment 6 – Culture & Civic Life:
Beauty as resistance.
Every ugly building is a sermon. Christians must fund cathedrals.

🕊️ Segment 7 – Personal Discipline:
Beauty as self-government.
Physical order. Rhythmic prayer. Daily form. Your soul needs a gardener.


🎯 Field Orders:
Choose one domain this week, and bring beauty into it intentionally.

  • Set your table like it’s for a King.

  • Read a Psalm aloud and mean it.

  • Clean the garage.

  • Bake bread.

  • Write a letter.

  • Tend the garden.

  • Catechize your kids.

Make it beautiful. Make it worship.
