About True Magic
“On earth as it is in heaven”—a podcast helping Reformed Christians to embody Christ’s reign, by finding the spiritual patterns expressed in physical things. We ask scripture and nature two main questions:
How is spiritual meaning expressed in the material world? We understand the physical realm as fundamentally symbolic, participating in heavenly patterns—and we want to better understand how.
How should this intersection of fact and meaning shape our piety? In light of what we learn about the physical imaging the spiritual, and we ourselves being images of the invisible God, how should we live so that we are properly participating in these patterns—that “thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven”?
True Magic is a project of Bnonn and Smokey Tennant, Reformed Christians living in New Zealand. It is one half doctrine and one half documentary. Smokey presents historical and cultural knowledge, and Bnonn applies hermeneutical and theological insights.
Bnonn & Smokey attend Redwood Reformation Church in Rotorua. Bnonn is the author of The Spine of Scripture: God’s Kingdom from Eden to Eternity, and It’s Good To Be A Man: A Handbook for Godly Masculinity.
