Last updated on: March 23, 2016 at 1:18 pm   By Sarah Sadie

When I stepped into the waters of Lake Superior, I recognized the sensation exactly: I’ve swum here before. Read more

How to do interfaith dialogue

Last updated on: December 26, 2014 at 10:13 am   By Yvonne Aburrow

Interfaih dialogue works best when the two groups in dialogue are willing to learn, respect, and listen. Religions are complicated and are situated in their particular cultural context; assumptions and over-simplifications are dangerous. Read more

Pagan leadership

Last updated on: July 10, 2014 at 5:53 am   By Yvonne Aburrow

The best Pagan leaders are those who listen – both to the promptings of spirit, and to their group members. A Pagan leader should not regard their community as serving them, but feel that they are serving the community (which includes other-than-human beings). In return, the community should value those who serve. Read more

Lammas

Last updated on: December 26, 2014 at 11:31 am   By Yvonne Aburrow

It is surprisingly hard to design rituals for large numbers of people that can involve everyone in the ritual. Some of my more successful attempts at creating ritual involving large numbers of active participants have happened at Lammas. Read more

Listening Is an Act of Dilation

Last updated on: February 19, 2015 at 4:06 pm   By Sarah Sadie

Listening is a creative act. It’s a sacred act, to listen fully to another. We’re co-creative not just with our gods and gardens, but with each other. Read more

Being Batty: Polytheism, Experience, and Monistic Reduction

Last updated on: June 16, 2014 at 8:50 am   By Julian Betkowski

I assert that we make a profound mistake when we attempt to apologize all points of view, all traditions, and all experiences. The profundity and richness of the universe is a result of the majesty and breadth of our differences. Polytheism seeks to embrace those differences exactly as they are presented to us. --A guest post by Julian Betkowski. Read more

Why I Dislike “-Ist”s but Love Raven Kaldera

Last updated on: June 1, 2014 at 11:18 am   By Christine Kraemer

When I teach, I do my best to downplay my personal beliefs, since my aim is to help students think critically and encounter texts and ideas with minimal bias from me. Here’s the secret truth, though: of the maybe two dozen books and essays we look at in my introductory theology class, my favorite is Raven Kaldera’s Dealing with Deities. Read more
