This Lent, give up more than chocolate—let’s give up authoritarianism and never pick it up again.--- Join and support the community: https://www.creationspaths.com/ --- A Christopagan Manifesto--- Answer to the Call: A Dream of an Oak ChurchIn this special Ash Wednesday and Lent episode, Charlie and Brian explore the meaning of Lent beyond traditional fasting. They challenge listeners to "Give Up Authoritarianism for Lent", emphasizing the importance of self-discipline, awareness, and collective action. They unpack the Four Freedoms—Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear—as a framework for resisting authoritarianism. The episode highlights how authoritarianism thrives on fear and insecurity, and how embracing community support, mutual aid, and self-discipline can counteract it. They close with the Litany Against Fear from Dune, urging listeners to confront fear directly and break free from the illusion of control that authoritarian structures impose.Thank you for Liking and Subscribing to this podcastThank you for sharing this episode with your loved ones, friends and community--- Thank you for Tips or Donations: https://ko-fi.com/cedorsett https://patreon.com/cedorsett https://cash.app/$CreationsPathsSubstack: https://www.creationspaths.com/ For all of the things we are doing at The Seraphic Grove go to Creation's Paths https://www.creationspaths.com/ For Educational Resource: https://wisdomscry.com Guided Meditations Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV0C8kiTKv0J2QAAlD1uaIJvQ3Sr9sIqO Christopagan Playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV0C8kiTKv0ISXDQkZBRB7EHrUUJgXlGN The Everything Playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV0C8kiTKv0Ln3eGW-tDk2R68PM6c182OCreation's Paths Podcast: http://www.creationspaths.com/podcast Church of the Oak Podcast: http://churchoftheoak.com/Hallowstead Podcast: http://hallowstead.com/Social Connections: BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/creationspaths.com Threads https://www.threads.net/@creationspaths Instagram https://www.instagram.com/creationspaths/#Christopagan #CreationSpirituality #ChristianWitch #Paganism #Esoteric #Magic #Druidry #Mysticism #Spirituality #Occult #WitchCraft #Wicca #IrishPaganism #CelticPaganism #Magick #Polytheism #Enchantment #Authoritarianism #freedom #IsraelRegardie #lent #fasting## Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Lent and Ash Wednesday01:22 Introducing the Hosts and Episode Theme02:04 The Significance of Lent and Fasting05:07 Giving Up Authoritarianism for Lent07:48 Understanding Authoritarianism08:45 The Four Freedoms11:15 Freedom of Speech and Expression14:03 Freedom of Worship17:25 Freedom from Want20:46 Freedom from Fear28:23 Conclusion and Call to Action Get full access to Creation's Paths at www.creationspaths.com/subscribe
