Cari Kaufman, formerly a high priestess of Wicca, thought she could do everything — yep, everything — by herself, thank you very much. Really, who needs friends when you have yourself

and a cauldron?

Cari is my special guest on Tuesday’s blogtalkradio show “The Sisterhood of Beautiful Warriors,” which I host weekly at 1 p.m. Central. You can listen to the conversation LIVE or to the ARCHIVE. Please tell your family and friends, especially if they’ve struggled with the ugliness of self-sufficiency or with the occult.

After 10 years in the occult, she became a Christian. You can read her testimony.

Long story short, after lots and lots of prayer by her friend named Heather and Heather’s church choir, Cari read the end times novel Left Behind by the pool while on vacation. She told her husband, Charlie (also not a Christian. . .yet) that she felt terrified.

Cari admits, “I had, for over ten years, vehemently opposed Christ and his teachings and was pretty sure he would never want me in his camp. Charlie’s response to me was, ‘I don’t know anything about this stuff. . .ask Heather.’”

{Oooh, I love that Heather.}

A month later, Cari asked Jesus to wash away her sin, past, present and future.

In Jesus’ strength, she broke free of her “I-gotta-be-the-best” mentality and wrote a book on friendships titled Living Life with Strings Attached. It’s about forming deep, strong, and meaningful relationships with women around you. Cari says it’s a picture of God’s design for relationship.

Cari also is a certified life coach, professional speaker, and decorated military officer as well as a wife and mom.

Join us Tuesday! To enter the book giveaway for Living Life with Strings Attached, please leave a comment.

You Are Precious!
