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)”

Sunday Sessions: The Ache That Was Never Depression
I actually wrote this last week—but didn’t post it. I am posting it now, late, because God wouldn’t let me keep it buried. I didn’t post it because I was afraid. Genuinely afraid. Not because I didn’t believe it was true, but because I’ve been conditioned to be afraid of my own truth. Conditioned toContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Ache That Was Never Depression”
A Continuing Discussion on Discernment: On Dependency, Communion, and Channeling
There’s a specific kind of fog that settles in when people lose their spiritual grounding but still want to sound enlightened. It gets thicker in comment sections, especially under videos like the one I recently saw of Eckhart Tolle. In the video, he’s talking about the difference between channeling and communion. And while his toneContinueContinue reading “A Continuing Discussion on Discernment: On Dependency, Communion, and Channeling”
Between the Lines: Why Our Messages about Faith Clash with Both the Church and New Age Spirituality
In the many years we, the voices behind the Twin Tree Project, have spent navigating faith, we’ve come to realize something that makes people uncomfortable no matter which side of the fence they’re on: Our beliefs don’t fit neatly into any box. The foundation of our belief system is, without question, Bible-based—but our personal, nuancedContinueContinue reading “Between the Lines: Why Our Messages about Faith Clash with Both the Church and New Age Spirituality”
The Observer at the Center: A Journey Through Cosmos and Connection
There’s a profound resonance in the idea that the “infinite universe” has no center, yet the “observable universe” pivots around the observer—you, me, each of us standing as a singular point of perception in an endless expanse. This rings true, even in a Biblical sense, if you delve deeply enough to weave it into notContinueContinue reading “The Observer at the Center: A Journey Through Cosmos and Connection”
From Rage to Refuge: The Power of Voice and Silence
This morning, I was ready to chuck my laptop out the window. Seriously—technical difficulties had me so worked up I could’ve screamed, except I was too busy wrestling with a platform that wouldn’t cooperate. I’m still shaking my head as I write this. (Side note: if you’re signed up for inbox updates, I’m so sorryContinueContinue reading “From Rage to Refuge: The Power of Voice and Silence”
Beyond the Surface: The Truth About Your Spiritual Presence | “Authenticity Unveiled” Series
In the 3D reality we inhabit, image is everything. From social media profiles to first impressions, people go to great lengths to curate how they are perceived. But while appearances can be manipulated, your energy—the essence of who you are—is something that cannot be faked. It is your spiritual face card, and in both the physical andContinueContinue reading “Beyond the Surface: The Truth About Your Spiritual Presence | “Authenticity Unveiled” Series”
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”
Community Correspondence: On Faith, Separation, and Obedience
In life, we all reach pivotal moments where we face a choice: to follow the path of obedience to God or remain in the comfort of what we know. These moments are never easy. Often, they require us to leave behind people we love—family, friends, even entire communities who, for whatever reason, have chosen notContinueContinue reading “Community Correspondence: On Faith, Separation, and Obedience”
