Nadia Bolz-Weber said it best in her book Shameless, "Origin stories, tell us how the world came about, where we came from, and other important things like white snakes, don’t have Lex. We may think we know our own origin story really well, but the garden of Eden account in genesis is notably devoid of several elements that Lora has inserted into it. For instance, there actually are no mentions of original sin, “a fall from grace,“ Satan, or temptation. And there wasn’t even an apple involved."

Cindy shares a new version of the story from the Gnostics (who knew they existed) and gives the most beautiful illustration of what this story means for us as women and our connection to nature.

Join us for a little story time that will completely change the way you look at the story of Eve.
