The Apostolic Johannite Church with Bishop Scott Rassbach

Bishop Scott Rassbach joins me in this episode to discuss the Apostolic Johannite Church, the Friary Ordo Sacrae Flammae, and the AJC's annual Conclave, and all manner of mystical strangeness.Bishop Rassach has a Bachelor's degree in English and History from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he prepared on a thesis on Philip K. Dick and his works. He also holds a Licentiate in Sacred Theology from St. Raphael’s seminary, where he has delved into many topics in Modern Gnosticism.He is an avid student of magical and mystic orders, modern ways of understanding ancient ideas, and the intersection of the traditional and the current. Scott likes to say that he is not a professional occult practitioner, but rather an advanced amateur. But he seems pretty advanced to me!LinksApostolic Johannite ChurchOrdo Sacrae FlammaeThe AJC Annual Conclave (May 31st through June 2nd!)Mentioned in this episode:The podcast is five years old!It's the podcast's 5th anniversary, and I want to celebrate with you!
