It’s the English class you didn't know you missed and the meaningful conversations you didn't know you craved. Join Vanessa Zoltan and Matt Potts as they bring thought, reflection and laughter to Harry Potter; not just as novels, but as instructive and inspirational texts that will teach us about our own lives. Relive the magic of Harry Potter chapter by chapter as Matt and Vanessa explore themes such as commitment, revenge and forgiveness. This podcast creates time in your week to think about life’s big questions. Because reading fiction doesn’t just help us escape the world, it helps us live in it.


Harry Potter and the Sacred Text is produced by Not Sorry Productions, a feminist organization that produces podcasts, educational content, live shows, and immersive experiences with the explicit goal of addressing the spiritual needs of its participants.

This show has kept me company for many highs and lows in my life and always offered peace and hope. Hosts Casper ter Kuile and Vanessa Zoltan are excellent teachers of sacred reading and just lovely folks to spend time with as they guide you through this series. I never knew how much more I could get out of books by reading them as sacred and I am very grateful for this show in my life.

The most fun wisdom you’ll ever gain.
