In this episode, Charlie, a non-binary Christopagan Druid, and their husband Brian delve into the origins and future of the Church of the Oak. They explore the deep interconnectedness of spirituality, nature, and community, discussing how traditional Christian teachings can be harmoniously blended with pagan values. They reflect on their 25-year journey to foster a new, inclusive spiritual path that respects both ancient and modern wisdom. The discussion highlights the importance of re-evaluating religious heritage, emphasizing an egalitarian, nature-based approach that eschews Imperial church hierarchies. Join them as they unpack the Christopagan manifesto and dream of an Oak church, aiming to spark a Christopagan revival rooted in love, compassion, and ecological awareness.
