artandfaithunplugged.com (https://www.artandfaithunplugged.com/) When it seems like too many things are falling apart and too many people are being too terrible, it’s easy to become too hopeless, too discouraged, and too angry. Instead of complaining and raging about the church's failures, the government's failures, and everyone else's failures, we can focus more on things like art and faith that help us navigate the joys and pains of everyday life. Art matters because it helps us belong to ourselves, others, God, and the world. Art and Faith Unplugged and its host Charlotte Donlon make space for conversations and writing that explore how art deepens our belongings and the ways art intersects with faith, doubt, and mystery. Welcome. We hope Art and Faith Unplugged helps you notice the ways art and faith help you flourish and belong. Visit artandfaithunplugged.com (https://www.artandfaithunplugged.com/) for essays, articles, and news about art, faith, and belonging. In this third episode with Chandra White-Cummings, Charlotte Donlon and Chandra discuss ways films, TV shows, and actors help Chandra feel less alone and how those who make art should engage different forms of art. Chandra also talks about the healing power of laughter and joy that comes from watching shows like Queen Sugar and Black-ish. Charlotte also gives a shoutout to Blaire Erskine and her hilarious Instagram videos. Chandra also talks about the ways Black women are inspiring her in her creative work.
