The Journey of Leaving Religion

By: The Pagan Preacher - Richard Ravenbrook
  • Summary

  • First off - Leaving Religion is not about " not believing" - It is the very opposite. It's about leaving mainstream religion, yes, but for for a true spiritual connection. We dig deep and deal with Religious trauma and we strive towards a real religious coexistence

    My name is Richard Ravenbrook. Some call me The Pagan Preacher. I am a man, an author - a clairvoyant life coach, and a spiritual guide. I am the Founder of both KIngdom Magick and The Ravenbrook Tradition. Throughout my quest for truth, the spirit has guided me along various paths. My roles have included church ministry, street ministry, and publishing, among others. I have shared this journey with Christian companions as well as pagan allies. I have received ordination in Christian ministry and I have also embraced initiation into the magical arts.

    The leaving Religion podcast encapsulates the wisdom and insights accumulated from these varied theologies, traditions, and philosophies. Leaving religion is about seeking true divinity and truth rather than simply following the crowd.

  • The Battle for Equality in a Changing World
    Nov 22 2024

    What if the principles of freedom and equality are slipping through our fingers? Join me, Richard Ravenbrook, as I confront the alarming forces seeking to reshape our society by imposing religious ideologies in public schools. We'll dissect the troubling rollback of fundamental rights and the mounting threat to interracial marriages, urging us all to step up as guardians of liberty. It’s high time we challenge the status quo, recognize the power we possess as engaged citizens, and recommit to the core American ideals that promise equality for everyone.

    Have you ever questioned the grip of mainstream religious teachings on your life? In this episode, I urge you to consider the contradictions and moral dilemmas of certain doctrines, particularly the concept of eternal torment. Together, let's embark on a personal spiritual journey, one that rejects external control and instead seeks internal, personal truths. This is a call to reconnect with spiritual roots and embrace diversity, moving past the superficial divisions that often plague organized religion.

    There is an urgent cry for unity and understanding across all spiritual communities. I reflect on the transformative power of unity, not just among pagans but across all beliefs threatened by societal pressures. Let us ally in advocating for an educational system that prioritizes practical knowledge and leaves spiritual teachings to the family. By fostering sustainable living and breaking away from materialism, we can create a world where freedom and equality thrive for every individual. Blessed be.

  • A Journey from Prejudice to Empathy
    Nov 8 2024

    Can we truly overcome hate with love and acceptance? Join me, Richard Ravenbrook, the pagan preacher, as we confront the polarizing forces of fear and bigotry that have gripped our society, challenging the very fabric of our shared humanity. Through a critical exploration of how fear-based programming fuels intolerance against marginalized groups, including the LGBTQ community and women, we question the authority individuals assume over others' choices and freedoms. Let's unravel the nuanced conflict between religious beliefs and personal liberties, urging a powerful shift from fear to understanding, acceptance, and education as the cornerstones of a peaceful, inclusive future.

    We'll also navigate the complexities of political influence, from the subjective nature of sin to the controversial projects shaping our future under leaders like President Trump. By examining the oppressive cycles of debt and division, the conversation highlights the essential American values of freedom and individual liberty while denouncing war driven by political agendas. Together, we will explore personal growth and spiritual maturity, advocating for empathy and solidarity as remedies to hatred. This episode is a heartfelt call to dismantle learned prejudices and unite in a collective journey towards love, compassion, and a society that embraces diversity at its core.

    What if ancient wisdom could unlock a new dimension of your spiritual journey? Join us, Richard Ravenbrook, as we embark on a quest to uncover hidden connections between world religions and philosophies often missed by mainstream interpretations. By reimagining figures like the Magi, we challenge the traditional labels and explore their true understanding of astrology and natural elements, inviting you to see Jesus not just as a figure of worship but as a teacher of enlightenment and leadership, ushering in a fresh perspective on spiritual growth. We dare to bridge the gap between seemingly conflicting beliefs, illuminating the misunderstood practices often labeled as "witchcraft" and revealing their ties to universal truths.

    This episode promises a transformative exploration of spiritual power residing within each of us. We delve into underappreciated teachings of Jesus, presenting the idea that his wisdom encompassed astrology, magic, and herbal knowledge—skills that enhanced his divine understanding. Discover the universal nature of manifesting intentions, as we draw parallels between prayer and rituals of magic, highlighting the interconnectedness of all living things. We invite you to trust in personal spiritual experiences and recognize the profound inspiration that lies beyond traditional religious texts. Embrace the spirit within you, and let this journey of personal empowerment guide you to insights deeper than any book alone can offer.
