Listen "Doing the Ashes Work "
Episode Synopsis
Send us a text!From Virgil to Dante to Dumas, the greats have understood a major thematic element in the story of masculinity…The descent into darkness. There must be descent. To find the golden branch of the ancient tree, men must descend into suffering, eating ashes, grief, death. Men must learn, as Robert Bly says, the season of “eating ashes.” We'll talk about that in today's episode. Special thanks to our sponsors, Reformation Heritage Books, and Christendom Bible College, for making this episode possible.
