In this weeks edition of The Sword & Staff, Josh and Ritchie get into a conversation on the resurgence of Norse Paganism. They discuss why they think there is a resurgence. They also discuss the Norse creation story and parallels to the Genesis creation story. They also get into what in the story can be blessed, baptized, or burnt.
The episode runs around an hour and there's still much more to discuss. They'll be back next week to continue the discussion!

Rituals, Portals, & Stranger Things
In this weeks edition of S&S, the guys lay a foundation for understanding rituals and liturgics, they discuss how rituals put us in communication with the unseen realm and how portals play a part in this, and they discuss Stranger Things and it's depiction of portals and high strangeness.
Also, the guys interact with a Patheos article on "What Happens When You Leave Open A Magical Portal?" You can find that source here and read it for yourself:

The Resurgence of Norse Paganism II
1 RecommendationsIn this episode, the guys conclude their discussion on Norse Paganism (for now). They discuss aspects of Norse Paganism that can be blessed, baptized, and burnt by diving into the many parallels in the Norse Creation story and the story of Odin hanging upon Yggdrasil.
The guys also talk about why we should be Christians instead of Norsemen with the help of Owen Barfield (One of the Inklings) and by showing how Norse Paganism can give no hope of victory.
You legitimately won't find any conversations like this in Christendom. You can only get them here at The Sword & Staff! Let us know your thoughts on this weeks episode.
