What if the Holy Spirit was never a ”he”?
Christine and Alycia crack open the long-buried story of Sophia – the feminine spirit of wisdom, the creative force behind everything – hidden for centuries by a patriarchal church desperate to protect its ”triune bromance.”
From ancient Hebrew texts where ruach (spirit, wind) was feminine, to the lost gospels of the Nag Hammadi found after WWII, they reveal how the feminine divine was erased, demonized, and literally buried. And why the world might need her now more than ever.
Get ready to rethink, keep, or reject everything you thought you knew about the Holy Spirit, God, and the feminine.
