The First God Was Woman is Book Three in the Matriarch Truth Series by M.K. Spryte, founder of Matriarch Emerges Publishing.
This book reaches behind modern patriarchal religion and asks an older question: before God was imagined as Father, King, Judge, and Lord, what sacred memory lived in the body of Woman?
Blending anthropology, psychology, theology, goddess traditions, memoir, and cultural criticism, M.K. Spryte examines the ancient feminine divine, early mother-centered symbols, prehistoric goddess figures, matrilineal memory, creator myths, and the long process by which patriarchal systems pushed female sacred power to the margins.
This is not a fantasy book, and it is not a simple argument that every ancient culture worshipped one universal goddess. It is a plain-language excavation of patterns: the womb as origin, the mother as first theology, the earth as living source, and the female body as one of humanity's earliest sacred texts.
Written for readers deconstructing inherited religion, questioning patriarchal history, or returning to goddess traditions, The First God Was Woman invites readers to look again at what civilization was taught to forget.
The Matriarch Emerges.
