If Jesus and Mary Magdalene had had a baby...

Why are so many people returning to Christianity? This is a question I'm being asked right now.
I'm getting this question because Sacred Remembering, my podcast and brand, is about remembering your direct connection to Source Creation, putting nothing in between. I was raised in a Methodist church in rural Pennsylvania, and I definitely had my fair share of "God trauma," as many (especially women) have. Not to mention you can hardly find evidence of the feminine in these spaces, so if we're reclaiming the Sacred Feminine, for many of us, it doesn't make sense to go into spaces that don't recognize, value, understand, or have a true relationship with the Mother essence of Creation.
There certainly is a noticeable uptick in people who left the church at one time for spiritual reasons, but are now returning. While you'd have to ask those folks directly why they've made this choice, I'll give a short viewpoint on this as someone who loves God but has no plans to return to the church.
