Dragons show up in almost every culture on earth, and there is a reason for that. In this episode of Faithful Fireside, we dig into what the dragon actually means as a symbol, from the healing serpent of Moses and the medical Caduceus, to the chaos beast of ancient myth, to the gold-hoarding mock king of Beowulf and the Volsunga Saga. We look at why dragons and dinosaurs might be the same thing, how Fafnir and Sigurd became the blueprint for every dragon-slaying story you know, and what C.S. Lewis meant when he said dragons do not hatch from eggs, they hatch from men on gold. We also get into Jordan Peterson, Carl Jung, theology versus modern categorical thinking, and why your personal sin actually does affect everyone around you. This is mythology, theology, and history all woven together in one conversation you will not want to skip.
