Discover a New Path of Connection: Exploring Culture, Soul, and the Changing Earth

Welcome to a place where we’ll shovel and burrow into The Big Questions—the deep inquiries about culture, the soul, and the changing earth. This space is dedicated to exploring the shimmering strands that weave through these complex topics, answering questions that go beyond the surface. Have you ever wondered why a string of words can stir something powerful in your chest? Why does beauty move us so profoundly, and how can this feeling compel us to act in meaningful ways? How does this experience connect to the cultural struggles we face in caring for our planet and each other?

Navigating New Paradigms in a Changing World

Here, we’ll dive into the wonders of rewilding, reclamation, reinhabitation, and bioregionalism—concepts that are changing the way we view our relationship with the environment. These movements challenge us to rethink how we live and interact with the earth, encouraging sustainability and healing. But we won’t stop there. We’ll ask bigger questions about the intersection of theology and science: Where do these two worlds meet and find common ground under the shade of an ancient tree? Why does nature, in all its beauty, demand something of us, and how do we reconcile this with our own evolving understanding of evolution?

Embracing the Complexity of Our Existence

In a world full of uncertainty, we must ask ourselves: How do we live authentically in an age of unknowns? Can I embrace my identity as Christian, Pagan, and humanist all at once? How do we direct our energies and set boundaries while affirming new, perhaps marginal, ways of being? The complexity of the human experience is what makes these questions so important, and they deserve a place in our conversations as we navigate the future.

A Personal Journey of Reflection and Discovery

I’m Amber, and I’ve been a writer for as long as I can remember—though not always in the traditional sense. There were times when I didn’t respond to the call of my writing, for various reasons, but now I’m stepping into that calling with open eyes. This blog is my way of sharing my journey with you, reflecting on the questions that shape my life, and exploring the practices that bring meaning and balance to this wild, ever-changing world. It’s a path that I hope brings you delight, insight, and a sense of belonging.
