This Is What Bold, Unashamed Faith Looks Like

This is a transcript of a message by Bryce Crawford, only 22 years old, mixed with my own commentary. Bryce is known for his street evangelism on YouTube, but here he is standing on a massive stage, saying the kinds of things most churches are afraid to say. No fluff. No performance. No crowd-pleasing Christianity.ContinueContinue reading “This Is What Bold, Unashamed Faith Looks Like”

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”

The Line Is Always Open

A while ago, God asked me to step away from the noise. The purpose was not just to “rest,” but to enter true solitude. It wasn’t the kind of solitude… The Line Is Always Open It’s been a while since I’ve written here. In that time, I’ve walked through a season of deliberate quiet —ContinueContinue reading “The Line Is Always Open”

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”

Clarity ≠ Bitterness: A reflection on spiritual boundaries, peace, and divine wisdom.

There’s a strange thing that happens when you truly wake up—not performatively, not for appearances, and certainly not to win religious approval. I mean spiritually, from the soul outward. When your eyes open to truth and your ears finally hear what the Spirit’s been whispering all along, something shifts so completely that it changes howContinueContinue reading “Clarity ≠ Bitterness: A reflection on spiritual boundaries, peace, and divine wisdom.”

Sunday Sessions: What Nature Still Knows (And What We’ve Forgotten)

A short video clip inspired this post. It was simple at first glance, but the symbolism hit me hard. A small bird sits alone in her nest, as an intruder—another male—enters and tries to impose himself on her. She doesn’t attack. She doesn’t flap in fear. She calls. Simply, clearly, she calls. And in aContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: What Nature Still Knows (And What We’ve Forgotten)”

No More Cages: On Breaking Free from Religion, Rules, and Robotic Living

I woke up irritated this morning—nothing major, just that low thrum of agitation humming beneath the surface. Then I saw an Alan Watts quote about walking alone being a choice, not a curse, and something clicked. Sharp. Unfiltered. I realized that religion and I were bound only by a mutual illusion: the idea that IContinueContinue reading “No More Cages: On Breaking Free from Religion, Rules, and Robotic Living”

Returning to True Oneness: Rebuilding Spirituality from the Ground Up

In my last post, I talked about how spirituality as a whole is undergoing a massive transformation — a death and rebirth — as the old structures of religion collapse under their own weight. As that crumbling accelerates, many people are waking up to the need for something deeper, something real. But rebuilding true spiritualContinueContinue reading “Returning to True Oneness: Rebuilding Spirituality from the Ground Up”
