My Friend, Leigh McLeroy
September 12, 2025
When I called Leigh McLeroy a few days ago, on September 8, she answered in her predictable manner, “Hello friend.” Her tone of voice was a cheerful and pleasant as it ever had been. We’ve kept in touch over the years, usually to compare notes about life as writers who want to use our crafts in ways that bring God’s truth to ‘earth as it is in heaven’.
But we didn’t talk much

“the best portion of a good person’s life is ‘the little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.”
― Theo of Golden

“It’s hard enough to define what art is, much less ‘good art.’ I wonder if there is such a thing. Maybe there are just good responses. But I guess if a work of art makes us see something familiar in a new way or makes us feel something we ought to have felt all along or shows us our place in the world more clearly, maybe then it qualifies as ‘good.’ If it makes us better somehow, maybe that’s what gives it value.”
― Theo of Golden

“for anything to be good, truly good, there must be love in it. I’m not even sure I know fully what that means, but the older I get, the more I believe it. There must be love for the gift itself, love for the subject being depicted or the story being told, and love for the audience. Whether the art is sculpture, farming, teaching, lawmaking, medicine, music, or raising a child, if love is not in it — at the very heart of it — it might be skillful, marketable, or popular but I doubt it is truly good. Nothing is what it’s supposed to be if love is not at the core.”
