In this podcast episode, Charlie and Brian explore the life and struggles of Saint Anthony the Abbot, using his nightly battles with demons as a metaphor for overcoming personal darkness and inner turmoil. They discuss "wrestling with your demons," including psychological challenges, spiritual attacks, and the nuanced interplay between the two. The episode emphasizes the importance of therapy, meditation, and practical spiritual practices for healing and growth, while cautioning against conflating spiritual issues with mental health challenges. They also touch on creating sacred spaces, the role of psychic shields, and the risks of exorcism when misunderstood or misapplied. The conversation encourages living in "right relationship" with oneself and others to foster long-term peace and well-being.
