One of the life’s greatest joys is the discovery of kindred minds: those who share your worldview and who have gone ahead and written on topics that you could would have been interesting in trying a hand at writing and doing it far better than you could have ever dreamed.

The resulting sense of camaraderie, humility, respect (especially when the work was written by someone from ages past), and gratitude is one of the most profoundly spiritual experiences I’ve ever had.

I’d put O’Donovan there. Lewis too. Wendell Berry. Chesterton. Doug Wilson.

Whose work has similarly impacted you?
