Why I’m a Christian, Not a Witch
If you’ve been following my blog for very long, you might know that I’m writing a book on goddess worship. Here’s the working title: Unmasking the Goddess: What Every Woman Should Know About Goddess Spirituality. As part of the research process, I’ve talked to practicing witches, former witches, and wannabe witches. I’ve met Christians who [...]
Chasing Sophia, Part 3
Proverbs is one of my favorite books in the Bible, and I’ve always been intrigued by the first couple of chapters, where Wisdom is personified as a woman.

Lately I’ve been fascinated by a new TV show called LA Ink. It’s about a popular tattoo parlor in Los Angeles, and all the weird and wonderful creatures who both patronize and work in the shop. The show can be a little racy; I’ve turned it off a few times. But what’s interesting is the [...]
Earth worship, part 2
Are pagans trying to take over the world? Is the goddess returning?
