There is a deep, human longing within us all—to be chosen, to be loved, to be accepted. It’s natural. We were created for connection, for relationships, for the comfort of knowing that we belong somewhere, with someone. But too often, in our pursuit of that belonging, we make a crucial mistake: we fight for placesContinue reading "Letting Go of Begging: Trusting in God’s Provision"
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 ifContinue reading "A Psychologist’s Perspective on Mental Illness, Avoidance, and the Path to Healing"
Deconstructing the Chains of Tradition: Unlearning Religion to Experience God, Reclaim Spirituality, and Understand the Bible Beyond Doctrine
The Issue of Religious Deconstruction The topic—nay, the issue—of religious deconstruction is far from a new one. In fact, we’ve discussed it before here at the Twin Tree Project. Yet, as I’ve immersed myself in the spiritual and religious communities on X, hoping to engage, explore and grow with more people of like mind andContinue reading "Deconstructing the Chains of Tradition: Unlearning Religion to Experience God, Reclaim Spirituality, and Understand the Bible Beyond Doctrine"
Walking in Integrity: Why You Were Called to Stand Out
I came across a post on X today that deeply resonated with me. It perfectly articulated something I’ve been reflecting on (and sharing with you, from other perspectives) a lot lately—how once we awaken, grow, or “level up,” we often feel like we no longer fit in. But the truth is, we aren’t meant toContinue reading "Walking in Integrity: Why You Were Called to Stand Out"
The Sacred Energy Exchange: Reclaiming the Divine Power of Sex
Not long ago, we shared a post about the sacredness of sexuality and sex as an act after being so moved by the story we read about the young woman who was making a mockery of the act by attempting to gain a Guinness World Record for the number of men slept with by aContinue reading "The Sacred Energy Exchange: Reclaiming the Divine Power of Sex"
Broken, But Not Destroyed: What Every Sacred Text Says About Suffering
There comes a point where suffering isn’t just something you go through—it becomes you. Where life strips away everything you thought you were, everything you thought you had, and leaves you standing in the wreckage, wondering if you were ever real to begin with. And what then? What do you do when you aren’t justContinue reading "Broken, But Not Destroyed: What Every Sacred Text Says About Suffering"
Sunday Sessions: It’s a Beautiful Day
There’s a song I think we’ve all heard at least once in passing, whether on social media, in reels, or shorts: “Lord, thank you for sunshine, thank you for rain. Thank you for joy, thank you for pain. It’s a beautiful day. It’s a beautiful day.” I haven’t been on social media much lately. TheContinue reading "Sunday Sessions: It’s a Beautiful Day"
Sunday Sessions: Blame It on the Moon
Spirit was on one this morning. I kept running into sign after sign, message after message, all tying into the moon—not just its quiet beauty in the night sky, but its deep, undeniable influence on the world. During breaks from working on some big projects around the house (which completely knocked the energy out ofContinue reading "Sunday Sessions: Blame It on the Moon"
Accountability & Motivation: The Internal vs. External Battle
Accountability is often seen as something external—rules, expectations, or authority figures keeping us in line. But real accountability, the kind that leads to lasting change, isn’t about fear of consequences or the need to meet someone else’s standards. It’s about self-responsibility. It’s about deciding, for yourself, that your choices matter, that your actions shape yourContinue reading "Accountability & Motivation: The Internal vs. External Battle"
The Standard of Self-Respect: Why It Begins With You
Sometimes it’s not that someone is disrespecting you, but they are treating you in a way they wouldn’t treat someone they respect. (Jared Mello) Read that again. At first glance, this quote is about how people treat us—how they reveal their level of respect (or lack thereof) through their actions. But if we stop there,Continue reading "The Standard of Self-Respect: Why It Begins With You"
