Signals of Transcendence (with Os Guinness)

from Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith & Culture · host Os Guinness, Sean McDowell, Scott Rae

What happens to people when they start to wonder “is this is all there is to life?”  Os Guinness calls that a signal of transcendence, but what exactly does that mean?  How do the life stories of people like C.S. Lewis, G.K Chesterton, and Malcom Muggeridge provide examples of these small openings in the windows of the transcendent?  Join us as answer these questions and more with our guest, Os Guinness, and his new book, Signals of Transcendence: Listening to the Promptings of Life.Os Guinness is an author, social critic, and great-great-great grandson of Arthur Guinness, the Dublin brewer.
