Hello Everyone! I am a mother, wife, literacy advocate, Qigong instructor, graphic designer, dancer, writer, and poet. I also aspire to be a follower of Christ. I grew up in an agnostic household but I always heard the voice of God in nature. As non-LDS in Utah, my siblings and I were shunned by our school, peers and community so I made the association of Christians being jerks very early. So, I studied paganism, Hinduism, Taoism and was quite happy in my previous life, but through the gateway of Mary Magdalene, I had an experience of Christ that changed my whole world. I've since went to many churches trying to recover that awe, but I still hear Him most in Nature and in the mystics who have known Him: Thomas Merton, St. Francis, Teresa of Avila, Richard Rohr, etc. I've always been kind of a weirdo who doesn't fit into categories, and I'm discovering my walk with Christ is no different. Of all the voices who have spoken about Him, John, Thomas and Mary Magdalene have spoken the loudest to me.
