In this episode of Creation’s Paths, hosts Charlie and Brian explore the legend of St. Patrick and Crom Cruach, a tale of Christianity’s clash with Druidry in ancient Ireland. They dive into the historical accuracy of the myth, questioning whether Crom Cruach was an actual deity or a later fabrication. The episode examines St. Patrick’s role in driving out the Druids, the propaganda behind Christian miracle stories, and how imperial narratives shaped religious history. They also discuss comparisons to Conan the Barbarian, the satanic panic of the 80s, and the power of myth in shaping belief systems. With humor and insight, they debunk misconceptions about Celtic paganism, analyze Christian imperialism, and challenge listeners to recognize the hidden “magic” of storytelling as a tool of control.

On The Razor's Edge with Mike Murdy Mike Murdy I have been broken and knocked down, but I keep getting lifted up as a stronger version of myself. I frequently get lost, yet here I am, an imperfect, and incomplete work of God's creation, being slowly drawn to my ultimate destination. I continue to search for the path to salvation that has been called, “as narrow and as difficult to walk as a razor’s edge.” I am not even sure I know what it looks like, but I continue to search... Join me as I share my experiences and speak with others who walk the path to wellness and self-care. Who knows what we might discover along the way? The Well-Being Podcast The WELL The Well-Being Podcast was created to support, encourage and empower Christian women in HEALTHCARE! Nursing is such a unique profession as a Christian, because you get to minister to broken, vulnerable people. In that low point in their life you have the opportunity to bring Christ’s light and love into that space. I have learned that it is not an easy task to constantly be serving, caring and loving on these patients. It often has left me burnt out and spiritually dry & in need of encouragement. The Lord has lit a path for creation of this podcast and I can't wait!xoxoNurse Casey
