It’s been quite a while since I’ve shared a psychology-related write-up. Recently, I saw a clip of liberal commentary that prompted a realization: even many otherwise balanced, reasonable people don’t fully understand what’s happening in the psyches of those on the radical ends of the political spectrum. And this phenomenon is not confined to oneContinueContinue reading “The Psychology of Political Conviction: Why Facts Often Fail to Change Minds”

The Alarms of Prophecy: Elam in the Headlines and the Call to the Harpazo | Daily Bread, Sunday Session
Recent and unfolding geopolitical events echo Jeremiah’s prophetic warnings about judgment. This post connects those signs to Scripture and urges readers to consult Scripture, repent and seek salvation in Christ before it’s too late.
Character Speaks Louder Than Words | Daily Bread
As believers, we are often exposed to teachers or leaders who fail to live by the truths they preach. This is why scripture repetitively reminds us that discernment is essential. This post explores the difference between mistakes and willful choices, how to recognize hypocrisy without judgment, and why believers are called to protect their spiritual health by following truth over charisma. Practical guidance and scripture help readers embody discernment and allow God to shape character from within.
God’s Reach, Not Our Striving
I recently read an article about how noticing that society is built on layers of lies often results in not fitting in anywhere. The main theme was that anyone who begins to notice these layers and then dares to express an opinion, or worse, asks questions, is quickly labeled an overthinker, an introvert, or eventuallyContinueContinue reading “God’s Reach, Not Our Striving”
A Supportive Message to the Ones Rebuilding Faith Outside the Walls
A message to the ones who stayed longer than they could explain— The messages in this post are often ones we see geared toward those struggling after breakups with partners or strife in their families. While these messages may absolutely fit those situations, this post is not about personal relationships. This post is about systems.ContinueContinue reading “A Supportive Message to the Ones Rebuilding Faith Outside the Walls”
Sunday Sessions: The Rise and Rot of the “Wounded but Wise” Archetype (A Spiritual Crisis of Accountability)
A few years ago, I began to notice something unsettling. It started quietly—subtle personality shifts in spiritual communities, vague contradictions in activist spaces, increasingly defensive energy cloaked in talk of “healing” and “boundaries.” But now, it’s impossible to miss. Before we explore that idea, though, you’ll notice that the posting schedule here has gone fromContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Rise and Rot of the “Wounded but Wise” Archetype (A Spiritual Crisis of Accountability)”
What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): Short-Term vs. Long-Term Caregiving — Two Different Worlds
Caregiving is not a one-size-fits-all experience. It takes many forms, shifts with time, and impacts people in wildly different ways depending on the duration, intensity, and emotional undercurrents involved. While most people have a general understanding of what it means to “be a caregiver,” very few grasp the depth of difference between short-term caregiving andContinueContinue reading “What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): Short-Term vs. Long-Term Caregiving — Two Different Worlds”
The Weight of an Apology: Why Words Alone Aren’t Enough
Can an Apology Fix What is Broken? This is a question that many of us have asked ourselves at some point in our lives—whether in relationships, friendships, family conflicts, or professional settings. Can an apology alone truly fix what has been broken? The short answer is no. An apology in itself is not a magicalContinueContinue reading “The Weight of an Apology: Why Words Alone Aren’t Enough”
Sunday Sessions: Unmasking the Misguidance in Modern Spirituality | The Abuse of Sacred Archetypes in Spirituality
A preface to this post: This Sunday Session has been simmering in my heart for over two months. I’ve prayed long and hard, asking God to guide my words, because I know it’s going to ruffle feathers in the spiritual community. It might challenge those who twist sacred phrases for manipulation or personal gain, butContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Unmasking the Misguidance in Modern Spirituality | The Abuse of Sacred Archetypes in Spirituality”
A Psychologist’s Perspective on Mental Illness, Avoidance, and the Path to Healing
The Post That Sparked This Discussion I’ve been seeing more and more posts like this one, and frankly, it’s exhausting. The comment sections are often filled with people (rightfully) holding the individuals accountable for their behavior, but what’s missing in these discussions is any consideration for what led them here or useful correspondence. Especially ifContinueContinue reading “A Psychologist’s Perspective on Mental Illness, Avoidance, and the Path to Healing”
