Between crucifixion and resurrection lies a day shrouded in silence—Holy Saturday. In this powerful and raw episode, Charlie and Brian explore the most overlooked moment of Holy Week: the day when even hope held its breath. With heart and insight, they delve into the spiritual and psychological importance of mourning, what it means to sit with grief, and how honoring this Via Negativa deepens our Christopagan practice. From Nietzsche’s “God is dead” to the struggle of calling oneself Christian in a world that misuses the name, this is a sacred space for reflection, mourning, and healing.
