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 ofContinueContinue 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 yourContinueContinue 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,ContinueContinue reading “The Standard of Self-Respect: Why It Begins With You”
The Lost Art of Common Sense: Skills We Need to Reclaim
We started this series to break down the nonsensical, one-sided, imbalanced takes we see repeated over and over—ideas that make absolutely no sense yet somehow dominate mainstream conversations. These takes are almost always based on “what works for me” rather than “what works for the majority of people,” and that self-centered, shortsighted mindset is theContinueContinue reading “The Lost Art of Common Sense: Skills We Need to Reclaim”
Common Sense Series: The Epidemic of Heartlessness
There’s a viral video circulating of a woman afraid to cross a long bridge, and a cop stepping up to help her by leading her across with his vehicle. Seems like a wholesome, heartwarming moment, right? Wrong—at least according to the comment section. Instead of celebrating an act of compassion and true public service, peopleContinueContinue reading “Common Sense Series: The Epidemic of Heartlessness”
The Era of Common Sense: Truth, Emotional Intelligence, and Rejecting the Noise
The Twin Tree Project is dedicated to teaching and promoting truth—whether scientific, spiritual, or biblical. Just as Jesus was despised for challenging the status quo, those who strive to bring clarity to a chaotic world are often labeled as hateful, judgmental, or oppressive. Yet the Bible reminds us that speaking truth, sense, and reality willContinueContinue reading “The Era of Common Sense: Truth, Emotional Intelligence, and Rejecting the Noise”
The Virtue of Temperance: A Path to Balance and Freedom
Temperance is one of the oldest virtues known to humanity, and it remains as relevant today as it was in ancient times. Historically, temperance has been associated with combating the sin of gluttony—not just in terms of physical indulgence, but also in how we allow ourselves to be consumed by excessive desires or passions. MoreContinueContinue reading “The Virtue of Temperance: A Path to Balance and Freedom”
Hollow Pillars: How Institutions Failed and What They Must Become
A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is His delight. (Proverbs 11:1) Balance. It’s the foundation of wisdom, morality, and meaningful progress. Yet, when I look at the state of modern institutions—religious, political, and educational—I see that balance has been utterly abandoned. Institutions that once served as pillars of societyContinueContinue reading “Hollow Pillars: How Institutions Failed and What They Must Become”
Neither Do I Condemn Thee: A Christian’s Response to Division and Vitriol
Over the weekend leading up to Inauguration Day, and especially this morning, I’ve observed a troubling surge of absolutely disgusting vitriol, condemnation, and divisiveness from both sides of the political and social spectrum. Since the inception of this blog, I have tried to remain as neutral and solution-focused as possible, sharing love and the experienceContinueContinue reading “Neither Do I Condemn Thee: A Christian’s Response to Division and Vitriol”
