Gospel Conversations takes a creative approach to attaining a deeper understanding of the gospel and what it means to us today. Our speakers are not ministers, but range from a diverse community of Christian thinkers who lead their various fields of knowledge in history, design thinking, theology, philosophy, and organisational leadership—among others. Each month we host a live event in Sydney, then publish it as a podcast.

2022 Conference - Sarah Golsby-Smith - Romanticism and Knowing

The 2022 Gospel Conversations conference has been considered a great success. This is the first talk to be released; an introductory talk by Dr Sarah Golsby-Smith on Romanticism and Knowing. As always Sarah’s talk is inspiring and offers a fresh look at theology through the lens of literature. In particular she argues that the Romantic era led the charge against ‘scientism’ in the 19th century and advocated ways of knowing that Esther argues are central to all real knowing. Sarah finishes with a wondrous unfolding of Coleridge’s epic poem on the imagination – ‘Frost at Midnight’
