Amy Carlson (November 30, 1975 – c. April 16, 2021), also known by her followers as Mother God, was an American religious leader and the co-founder of the new religious movement Love Has Won. Carlson and her followers believed that she was God, a 19-billion-year-old being, and a reincarnation of Jesus Christ, and that she could heal people of cancer "with the power of love". Her group has been described as a cult and Carlson as a cult leader by many, including ex-members and media outlets.
Carlson's body was found mummified in Love Has Won's compound in Crestone, Colorado, in April 2021.
