Monica Baker

For ten years I wandered through deconstruction and New Age spirituality, chasing freedom that always seemed just out of reach. What I eventually found wasn’t a shinier version of myself or a bigger vision board — it was faith, rediscovered in midlife.

This space is where I write about that journey. Essays here explore the intersections of faith, culture, and midlife — where belief collides with modern life, where cultural trends promise much but leave us empty, and where rediscovering God changes the story.

If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, felt the pull of spiritual shortcuts, or wondered what faith looks like on the other side of midlife, you’ll find company here.
