Steal Past Those Watchful Dragons: How Story Bypasses Skepticism | Greg Cash

In this episode, I sit down with Greg Cash—pastor, apologist, videographer, and rancher—to explore the power of storytelling in communicating deep spiritual truths. Greg is heavily involved with Stand to Reason, the apologetics ministry founded by Greg Koukl, author of Tactics. Together, we unpack C.S. Lewis’ insight that narrative, myth, and beauty can bypass intellectual resistance, sneaking truth past the “watchful dragons” of skepticism. We discuss how story, art, and film uniquely convey the reality of God in ways pure argument often cannot and why beauty and goodness are just as vital as truth in engaging the modern world.

Greg shares insights from his work in filmmaking and apologetics, discussing how narrative shapes belief. Whether you're a pastor, artist, apologist, or simply someone who loves a great story, this conversation will challenge you to think deeply about the role of beauty, creativity, and storytelling in pointing people to Christ. Don’t miss this thought-provoking discussion on how we can use the power of story to bring light and life to our churches and communities.
