Cheryl Lindsey Seelhoff (June 3, 1952) is the former editor of Gentle Spirit magazine,[1] a homeschooling and homesteading magazine, published between 1989 and 2001, that reached a readership of approximately 35,000 before being forced from the marketplace in a well-publicized anti-trust lawsuit, Seelhoff v. Welch. Seelhoff's high profile in Christian homeschooling, and the details of the case which was decided in Seelhoff's favor, was closely watched by the U.S. homeschooling movement as a battle for its control between conservative Christian and independent homeschoolers.[2][3]. A former ardent Quiverfull proponent and birth-mother of eleven children, she has continued as a writer, and under the pseudonym "Heart" a highly read blogger, devoted to radical feminist causes.[4] [5] [6].
