Welcome to
The Self-Inflicted Savior
I am Rev. Shakes Spear
The Self-Inflicted Savior, God’s Favorite Guru, the Universal Ambassador of Love, and Your Personal Guide to Spiritual Salvation…but you can call me Rev. Shakes.
I have one goal: to convince you to stop fucking around and get yourself a God.
Offerings from Rev. Shakes
SERMONS
Read my self-righteous rants that are the lectures that I should have given, do give, and will continue to give myself until I figure out what the fuck is going on.
They are supposed to be funny, antagonistic, and light-hearted but some cry-babies think they’re mean…
RAW POETRY
Poetry that was written late last night and the night before.
This stuff is unedited, mostly about ‘spiritual’ stuff but it runs the gamut from the beautifully religious to the extremely ugly and profane.
You’ve been warned…
PODCAST
The Self-Inflicted Savior Podcast features me, the Good Reverend Himself, sloshing through my sermons in my own inimitable way.
If you like booming, bass-heavy podcasts, then have I got something special for you.
Read my sermons and follow along!
Books
My name ain’t Wigglin’ Sticks, it is Shakes Spear – and that’s what I do best.
Read the classic, best-seller that started it all, Stop Fucking Around and Get Yourself a God, and go from there.
Merch
Official SIS and Rev. Shakes merchandise to shake up things at your next coven of witches get-together or the church pot-luck this weekend, or however it is that you worship your so-called ‘God.’
The ‘Electric Love Mother Fucker!’ shirt is always a good choice for hospital visits and charity work.
Support
Well…this isn’t actually an offering, it’s a receiving. It’s your chance, as they say, to ‘give back.”
Sure, prayers, well-wishes, and good thoughts are the best way to support my work, but if you want to send me fat stacks of cash, I’m down with that, too.
This is how that is done…
