"Hey! I thought you might be into this newsletter/magazine called Life is a Sacred Text, which [really nourishes me, or whatever you might say about why you read LiST]; it combines ancient prophetic wisdom, healing, and the tools we need now-- and it's for people of any, and no, spiritual or religious inclination. [put your link here]"

Life is a Sacred Text is always independent, nonprofit — and most of all community-driven. It's your thoughtful engagement with, and sharing of this work, that makes it possible to co-create something better out there. ❤️ 🌱

How it works:


1) Copy and share your community link far and wide 🔗
PLEASE! This is the crucial crucial important first step.

To help expand our Life is a Sacred Text community, copy and share your unique link below with anyone you know who needs nourishment, truth and hope. Share it on social media, in your chat groups, on listservs, anywhere and everywhere. (You have to be logged in for your unique referral link to work. Click the button at the top of the page that says "Log in" and make an account if necessary.)

2) Your people sign up for Life is a Sacred Text 🌱
Your friends, family, neighbors, colleagues, etc. join this community of folks who care about serious questions and the better world we can build. We build a movement. We have more people who can have more impact. That's the thing that really matters.

3) Win fabulous prizes! 📚 ✨

As a thank you for your efforts, there's a bit of a game, here. The person who helps build this community the most each month) (free, paid, whatever) will get thanked in my next real actual print book! AND every week or two I'll send out swag (as well as the occasional signed book...) in unabashed Chaos Muppet style (uh, in random, disorganized fashion) to other people who are helping to grow our movement, as a thank you.

4) You help us grow 🌳
More people in this community. A community becomes a movement. A movement can have an impact. You can help this become so much more than a newsletter– thank you. ❤️

Without this community, Life is a Sacred Text is words shouted into the ether. It’s your thoughtful engagement with, and sharing of this work, that makes it possible to co-create something better out there. You make Life of a Sacred Text a community—a movement. 

Why this matters: 

(1) When I left Substack – that Nazi-tolerating, Elon-sycophantic for-profit machine for a nonprofit host– at the same time that I made this my full-time work– I knew I'd be taking a significant hit, since Substack's author infrastructure is far, far superior (unsurprising given that they have 30 x more employees.)

But here, we strive to walk the walk, and align our actions with our values, and not supporting Nazis is a value.

So when I say we can’t be anything without this community– without you– I mean it. We literally cannot do this work without you, and your support, as readers. We grow off the algorithm, because of your willingness to share the work. 

(2) This program is both a thank you and a let’s keep going, please little nudge. We need you now more that ever.

Sending so many blessings your way, and so much gratitude.
