“The Lord said, ‘I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry… I know their sufferings, and I have come down to deliver them…’” (Exodus 3:7–8) We cry out from our personal Egypts— not just physical places, but systems of survival: ways of thinking, believing, and […]
Are You Running from Growth in the Name of God? Jonah’s story isn’t just about a big fish — it’s about how we avoid the hard work of inner transformation. Learn how spiritual bypassing shows up in surprising ways, and how God gently invites us to face what we’d rather avoid. That’s the heart of […]
More Than a Word We’re drowning in information. The real question now isn’t what do you know, but what do you pay attention to? Wisdom, real wisdom, doesn’t pile up data. It listens for meaning. It aligns with depth. And few words carry more depth than this one: Logos. It’s been called “word,” “reason,” “logic”— […]
“Say to wisdom, ‘You are my sister,’ and call understanding ‘your intimate friend,’ that they may keep you from the wayward woman…” —(Proverbs 7:4–5) At first glance, it seems simple enough. Wisdom is the sister. The wayward woman is the danger. Wisdom protects you. She keeps you on the straight path. Case closed. But… […]

Let me just say this clearly upfront: If psychedelics were inherently deceptive, ego-driven, or spiritually dark—I’d say an absolute no. Full stop. No need for more words. But what if they’re not that simple? What if some of our hesitation is based on assumptions or fears we’ve never really unpacked? I’m not here to tell […]
It’s interesting how many traditions, therapies, and bits of good advice come back to this: Keep your heart open. Do not let anything that happens in life be important enough that you’re willing to close your heart over it. — Michael A. Singer, The Untethered Soul But what does that even mean? I get the […]
Let’s be honest—when we read about animal sacrifices in the Old Testament, it can feel… alien. Maybe even disturbing. Slaughtering a goat to “atone for sin” doesn’t translate easily into our modern spiritual or psychological frameworks. But what if these ancient rituals weren’t just about sin management? What if they were a symbolic language—a soul […]
We’ve inherited a loaded word: perfect. In Christian spaces, it often gets tangled up with moral performance, external behavior, and a quiet panic that we’re never enough. But what if the Bible never meant it that way? What if “perfect” in Scripture is not about flawlessness, but wholeness—about becoming real, integrated, true? Let’s take a […]
We Need to Talk About This Let’s be honest—suicide is one of the hardest topics to discuss, especially in Christian circles. Many people struggling with suicidal thoughts already feel isolated, but the stigma within faith communities can make it even worse.
