FGP Celebrity Quote of the Week: Amy Ray Is Used to Jesus 2012-04-17T15:04:29-04:00 Lilit Marcus

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Amy Ray is one half of folk-music legends The Indigo Girls. Although she occasionally sings Hanukkah songs, she says that growing up in the South made her pretty familiar with Christianity. “I grew up in the South and once you get raised on Jesus, it is kind of always a part of you even if you are a pagan, really,” she told radio station WNYC. That cultural background inspired her new song, “The Rock Is My Foundation.” Fun fact: Amy graduated from Emory University with degrees in English and Religion, so she knows her stuff.
