Rosie's Empty Confessional | CCR 209
from Canary Cry News Talk
In 2024, Rosie walked onto the playa at Burning Man carrying tarot cards, a practice in Italian folk magic, and a quiet longing to return to God. The first thing she found was an empty wooden confessional. And it changed her forever! Basil sits down with Rosie to hear what happened next: meeting Carl Teichrib and the Camp of the Unknown God, morning Bible studies on the playa, and the much harder road home. Rosie tells her story with real candor, from addiction and a binding spell to escaping a severely abusive relationship, and how God pursued her through all of it. She also shares how Latin Mass and a surprise at the Eucharist led her into Eastern Orthodoxy, and what her relationship with magic looks like now. It's a testimony of fruit that keeps growing long after the burn, and proof that no one is too far gone. Content note: this episode discusses abuse, addiction, and suicidal thoughts.
