086 - Christopaganism (With Jeremy and Irena Warriner)
Paganism and Christianity, living harmoniously together. Each one drawing from the other. But does this even make sense? How can two things that are so different exist side-by-side? Or are they so very different after all?
This week we are talking with Jeremy and Irena Warriner. Jeremy grew up in the methodist church but neglected his faith as he grew older and went off to college. But when he accidentally attended a ceremony put on by witches, he found that old spark again. Tragically, Jeremy lost his legs in an automobile accident and was placed in a medically induced coma for 6 weeks. It was during this time he had a spiritual awakening and realized just how similar so many religions actually are.
Irena grew up in a conservative, patriarchal Christian atmosphere. After getting pregnant at 18, her church shunned her and cast her out. She soon married but was treated more like an item and less as a human. Due to his dogmatic upbringing, he attempted to silence Irena’s voice in the name of his faith. Luckily, Irena found her place with a local earth-based religious group. Now she is a priestess in the Temple of Ascension and a practicing committee member of their local Christian church.
This is a beautiful story of two people coming together to understand God in a deeper way. We invite you to come and allow any superstition to fall off as we get to know both of these amazing people better.
