This article has been on the NY Times most emailed list ever since it appeared on August 20. The reason I link to it is simply because it is remarkably well-written. Its excellence as a written piece makes it worthwhile. Moreover, it is excellent writing about someone who himself so excels at what he does his brilliance evokes wonder and an almost reverent appreciation. According to the author, it is "beauty" that elicits such a response.
In his thoughtful new book, NT Wright identifies this stirring longing for beauty, along wiht our longings for truth, love, justice, spirituality and relationship as "echoes of a voice" that inhabits and fills reality.
