About this episode

Join Julie Jancius on Angels and Awakening for a profound conversation with philosopher Simon Critchley, author of Mysticism. Dive into the radical world of medieval mystics like Julian of Norwich and Meister Eckhart, who challenged the Church with visions of divine love, gender-fluid theology, and a God beyond sin. Discover how mysticism lives on in music, why angels matter, and what modern spirituality can learn from heretics and saints.
