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.
Grief is Praise: The Sacred Work of Loving What We’ve Lost | Daily Bread
We live in a culture that treats grief like a broken bone. It morphs grief into something that needs to be set, healed quickly, and returned to normal function as soon as possible. We’re given timelines for mourning, prescribed stages to move through, and gentle but persistent pressure to “find closure” and “move on.” ButContinueContinue reading “Grief is Praise: The Sacred Work of Loving What We’ve Lost | Daily Bread”
The Quiet Vigil (A Personal Reflection)
It’s midnight. Someone I love is sleeping beside me, deeply and peacefully, completely unaware of the quiet watch taking place over her. Her name is Echo, and she is my eldest dog. Echo has terminal cancer, and it’s been progressing fairly quickly lately. Earlier tonight there was a small medical moment. It was nothing dramaticContinueContinue reading “The Quiet Vigil (A Personal Reflection)”
We Don’t Stop Caring, We Stop Carrying
There comes a point in life when you realize that love and attachment are not the same thing. When we grow apart from those we used to think we couldn’t live without, those who we were merely attached to without depth or reciprocation, we don’t stop caring; we stop carrying. That’s what real forgiveness andContinueContinue reading “We Don’t Stop Caring, We Stop Carrying”
From Roots to Renewal | Where We Grow From Here
Silence isn’t absence. It’s work being done. Deep work. The kind that doesn’t always announce itself but shows up later as fruit. I have been mostly quiet in terms of writing and sharing here at Twin Tree throughout 2025. I’ve shared about some situational things here and there, mostly to help keep focus on theContinueContinue reading “From Roots to Renewal | Where We Grow From Here”
As Above, So Below: The Biblical Mirrors of the Hermetic Principles
What Jesus Actually Said vs. What People Think Is ‘Sinful’ “Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.” — Matthew 6:10 This line, straight from The Lord’s Prayer—the one Jesus Himself offered as a model for how to pray—is the biblical heartbeat of the ancient Hermetic axiom: “As above, so below.” IContinueContinue reading “As Above, So Below: The Biblical Mirrors of the Hermetic Principles”
The Shape of Escape: A Testimony of Climbing Out of What Almost Kept Me
There’s a term from developmental biology that stuck with me the first time I heard it: chreode. It describes a kind of groove—a well-worn path of least resistance that cells tend to follow during development. Once they start down that track, the path becomes harder to exit. It shapes them. Defines them. Holds them inContinueContinue reading “The Shape of Escape: A Testimony of Climbing Out of What Almost Kept Me”
The Cost of Awareness: The Performance of Humanity and the Weight of Feeling Too Much
Earlier today, I came across yet another post online where someone was asking, “Why are so many people laughing during this?” The context was tragic—something serious had happened, and yet, the reactions captured on video were bizarrely out of sync with the gravity of the moment. People were laughing. Filming. Spectating like it was aContinueContinue reading “The Cost of Awareness: The Performance of Humanity and the Weight of Feeling Too Much”
Labeled by Design: Why Today’s Youth Are Angry—and Why It’s Not Their Fault
It is almost infuriating to hear people complain about and be angry with the youth of our nation—and the world—today. This has weighed on my heart for quite some time, and I believe it’s time to change the script. Before you get defensive and begin to respond that the youth are sorry, lazy, greedy, andContinueContinue reading “Labeled by Design: Why Today’s Youth Are Angry—and Why It’s Not Their Fault”
