Life is a Sacred Text is always independent, nonprofit — and most of all community-driven. It's your thoughtful engagement with, and sharing of this work, that makes it possible to co-create something better out there.

As we enter five years of offering wisdom, fortification, and changemaking strategy, we need your help building this movement— and we’ve got a scheme we think you’ll be into. If you've already been sharing this work, want to continue building community, and/or just love a healthy competition, then it's time to get rewarded. ❤️ 🌱

There are a few other people who work on Team LiST at this point, but so often it's still just me and this machine. (And yes, that's a post coming soon about which I am very much excite ok)

**You make Life of a Sacred Text a community—a movement. **

Why this matters:

(1) When I left Substack – that Nazi-tolerating, Elon-sycophantic for-profit machine for a nonprofit host– at the same time that I made this my full-time work– I knew I'd be taking a significant hit, since Substack's author infrastructure is far, far superior (unsurprising, given that they have 30 x more employees.)

But here, we strive to walk the walk, and align our actions with our values, and not supporting Nazis is a value.

So when I say we can’t be anything without this community– without you– I mean it. We literally cannot do this work without you, and your support, as readers. We grow off the algorithm , because of your willingness to share the work.

(2) This program is both a thank you and a let’s keep going, please little nudge. We need you now more that ever.

How it works:

1) Copy and share your referral link far and wide 🔗 To help spread the word about Life is a Sacred Text, copy and share your unique link below with anyone you know who needs nourishment, truth and hope. Share it on social media, in your chat groups, on listservs, anywhere and everywhere. (You have to be logged in for your unique referral link to work. Click the button at the top of the page after you click that says "Log in" and make an account if necessary.)

2) Your people sign up for Life is a Sacred Text 🌱 When your friends, family, neighbors, colleagues, etc. join this community of folks who care about serious questions and the better world we can build, we count your referrals toward your rewards! (And yes, they can sign up for the free tier or get more in the House of Study..!)

3) Win fabulous prizes! 📚 ✨

The top winner each month – the person who refers the most subscribers, whether free or paid– will get thanked in my next real actual print book!

AND every week or two I'll send out swag (as well as the occasional signed book...) in unabashed Chaos Muppet style to folks who are killing it on the word-spreading game, as a thank you.

4) You help us grow 🌳 More people in this community. More liberatory wisdom, fortification, and strategy become possible to help us meet the moment this year, and years to come!
