Throughout the years, many Christian women have told me of their great respect for the bravery and courage evident in my work, perhaps even gesturing to their own Isis earrings or a Nile River Goddess pendants.

The speaker reflects on receiving affirming feedback from Christian women who admire the perceived courage in her work—work that, by implication, challenges conventional Christian boundaries through engagement with goddess traditions. The mention of “Isis earrings” and “Nile River Goddess pendants” suggests a quiet, personal syncretism: even within Christian identity, some women adopt symbols of ancient female divinity as a form of spiritual exploration or feminist self-expression. The quote highlights how religious identity can be porous and how gestures of solidarity may be expressed through material culture (jewelry) rather than formal doctrinal change. It also underscores the social risk and emotional labor involved in publicly advocating alternative theologies.
