Kristie Macrakis is on a personal journey in north Georgia. A transplant from Boston and a self-described “pagan agnostic,” she decided one way to learn more about the people who live in her community was to go to church with them. Macrakis calls the project “Six Churches, Six Miles, Six Weeks.” She has been writing about the experience on her blog. We talk to her about her spiritual journey. 

Plus, Macrakis is also an expert in something else which has nothing to do with religion. Host Celeste Headlee tries to uncover what it is as part of our occasional series "No Notes."
