What can ancient mythologies teach us today?

For the finale of our origins / cosmology series of 2023, we are discussing 4 ancient creation mythologies: Greek, Norse, Mesopotamian, and Hebrew! Christian Ashley and Joshua Noel are joined by guest and former host, Brandon Knight, to discuss these creation myths and what they can teach us today. We compare each of these myths to what we believe about our own creation myth in the Bible!

Where can I read Greek mythology? Who created Greek mythology? Who was the 1st Greek god? How does Greek mythology explain creation? Who created the universe in Greek mythology? How does Norse mythology explain the creation? Who is the first creature to be created Norse mythology? What is the spark of the world in Norse mythology? What does the cosmic cow do? What does Enuma Elish say about creation? What is the Marduk creation myth? What is the Babylonian mythology of creation? What is the story of the Eridu Genesis? Why was Eridu important? What was Gilgamesh famous for? Is Gilgamesh Based on a true story? What is the Yahweh creation story? What is the myth of Elohim creation? Are Genesis 1 & 2 different stories?

Our show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective. We do not try to put Jesus into all our favorite stories, but rather we try to ask the questions the IPs are asking, then addressing those questions from our perspective. We are not all ordained, but we are the Priests to the Geeks, in the sense that we try to serve as mediators between the cultures around our favorite fandoms and our faith communities.

About the Podcast

Systematic Geekology
Priests to the Geeks
This is not a trap! (Don't listen to Admiral Ackbar this time.) We are just some genuine geeks, hoping to explore some of our favorite content from a Christian lense that we all share. We will be focusing on the geek stuff - Star Wars, Marvel, LOTR, Harry Potter, etc. - but we will be asking questions like: "Do Clones have souls?" "Is Superman truly a Christ-figure?" or "Is it okay for Christians to watch horror films?"
