Flirting with Enchantment | John Mark McMillan
Shownotes
Conversations about the search for meaning in modern life through the lens of Christian spirituality. Exploring the deeper longings beneath the surface of faith, art, culture, and the stories that shape the way we see the world. Hosted by artist and author John Mark McMillan.
New episodes every other Tuesday starting September 1st, 2026.
Have you ever stopped to wonder how we've built a world our great-great-grandparents would have mistaken for magic, and yet we find ourselves more anxious than ever, more isolated, and less satisfied?
That question is at the heart of a brand new podcast.
John Mark McMillan is asking whether we've started expecting science to answer questions it was never designed to answer. Science can teach us how the world works and help us live longer, but can it tell us why all this surviving was ever a good idea in the first place?
He believes the deepest longings are spiritual ones, and wonders if our ancestors, despite knowing far less about how the world worked, may have understood things we've forgotten. As a Christian and as a human being living in the 2020s, John Mark wants to spend more time asking those spiritual questions.
That's exactly what "Flirting with Enchantment" is built for. It's a podcast exploring big questions about meaning-making and the deeper desires of the human heart, through the lens of Christian spirituality.
