A Mystic (and Historically Accurate) Christianity w/ Destiny Finn
Destiny Finn breaks down mystical information hidden inside Christianity, blending theology with history and mysticism and psychology. We look at everything from how Christianity developed, the universal teachings of Jesus, the patterns inside Christianity that appear in religions throughout the world, the different ways Christianity expresses itself today, and what it was like to grow up as a right-wing Christian fundamentalist (and what it took to get out).
