What is a sacrament and where do we see it in Outlander? A sacrament is a rite or ritual or event in which grace is imparted, where the extraordinary comes to us through the ordinary. In this episode, Terry and Jayme explore the wealth of sacramentality in the Outlander series, looking particularly at marriage, confession, communion, baptism, last rites for the dying, and holy taking orders.

Outlander creates a mythic universe in the same way that Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars does. There is magic and bad guys, and while sometimes there is terrible sacrifice, ultimately, the universe finds balance. So in this episode, we look at the various purposes of sacrifice, the recurring themes of sacrifice in Outlander - primarily around ritual, war, and honor - and what that means for the series and us.
