C. S. Lewis called Christ the myth that became fact in an essay called..."Myth Became Fact". What does this mean? Well, Cameron Dixon joins the show to discuss that essay, phenomenology, the Divine Liturgy, and how Santa Claus fits into it all. Most of the essays and poems we discuss can be accessed for free on the internet.

I Might Believe in Faeries
This is a podcast about stories, myths and Catholicism. Stories are how we orient ourselves in the world. In Catholicism, we believe in the Greatest Story: Christ crucified and resurrected. We participate in His story through ritual worship; the liturgy. Even in the Catholic Church, these truths are often forgotten or ignored. My mission for this podcast is to explore storytelling, myths, and how these fit into Catholicism. I will cover Catholic fantasy and science fiction authors, mythology, folklore and the Catholic faith.
