After a Catholic priest compared them to a dog for being queer, a fourteen-year-old Liz stomped away not only from the church but any spiritual exploration period. If the God they were told to worship doesn't recognize the fullness of their own soul, why should they care for the fullness of God?
As they grew into their twenties, the need for spiritual centering started beating at the edge of Liz's heart. And when learning about Quakerism and the faith's more open-ended interpretation of God, a new question ripped wide open: what is God? Is it possible there's something beyond the angry white man in the sky they thought God was supposed to be?
Through these poems, Liz explores that question as widely as their spirit will take them and invites you to do the same.
