Mystical Heresy: The Troublesome Dimension of Mysticism

Oct 19, 2023

Given Christianity's 2,000-year history, the number of mystical heretics is relatively small, but occasionally they pop up. Throughout history, there appear to be outbreaks almost every century, one of the largest ones taking place in the 14th century with the Free Spirit Heretics. In this episode, we explore that movement and others all the way to the 20th century.
