• Finding Mama God with Anni Ponder and Kim Eckhart

  Catherine talks with Anni Ponder and Kim Eckhart, who host a regular online meeting called “Finding Mama God”.   Both Anni and Kim describe how, independently, they have grown up in Christian churches which focused on the masculine aspects of the divine, and yet were drawn into a journey of discovering the transformative power of perceiving God as feminine, particularly through the lens of our motherhood.  How they met, and have been able to share together their experiences of deeply healing and empowering through their encounters with “Mama God”. They highlight the importance of creating spaces where this feminine divine can be openly acknowledged and celebrated, fostering a sense of community and shared experience, and how they have facilitated this with the establishment of their online “Finding Mama God” group of which everyone is invited to be a part.   You can find more about Finding Mama God at https://www.anniponder.com/finding-mama-god.
