Have you ever encountered someone so convinced of their own “wisdom” that they dismissed anything outside their understanding as foolish or wrong? Someone who, rather than engaging thoughtfully or with curiosity, sought instead to control the narrative—to shut down dialogue and assert themselves as “right”? It can be unsettling, even frustrating, to come across suchContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Quiet Journey of Spiritual Maturity and the Challenge of Resistance”

Answering the Call: Living in Alignment with God’s Purpose
In my last post, I opened up about how exhausting healing and awakening can feel—how relentless the process can seem when it strips us down to our barest, most vulnerable selves. That post came from a raw, honest moment of struggle, a “come to Jesus” moment where I felt like I had nothing left toContinueContinue reading “Answering the Call: Living in Alignment with God’s Purpose”
Wintering: When Healing Feels Endless
This morning, I had a come to Jesus moment. I found myself crying, exhausted, and angry. So tired of tears, so tired of healing, so tired of growing. I texted someone I love, saying I wished this was the end of awakening, because every time I think I’m nearing a conclusion, it just deepens. IContinueContinue reading “Wintering: When Healing Feels Endless”

The Internet has become one of the most striking examples in history of why we need the gift of discernment.

The Art of Becoming: A Reflection on Kurt Vonnegut’s Words

Lay it down.
The Weight We Carry What are you holding onto, and why? Are you carrying the burden of proving your point to someone who isn’t even paying attention? Are you weighed down by grudges, betrayals, or the need to justify yourself? The truth is, holding onto these things doesn’t serve you. It hinders your growth, blocksContinueContinue reading “Lay it down.”
Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems
I recently found myself facing the difficult realization that I needed to release someone—for the highest good of both of us. It’s never easy when God calls us to turn away from someone we care about deeply, especially when every part of us wants to hold on. But sometimes, no matter how much we careContinueContinue reading “Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems”
Sunday Sessions: Living, Rather Than Looking, Forward
Life has an odd way of convincing us that fulfillment lies somewhere in the future—a destination waiting to be reached, a chapter still to be written. We spend so much time looking forward to what’s next: the next milestone, the next goal, the next version of ourselves that feels more healed, accomplished, or whole. It’sContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Living, Rather Than Looking, Forward”
The Profound Language of Senses: Awakening to Higher States of Reality
In our everyday lives, we often think of our senses—sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell—as simple tools to navigate the physical world. But what if these senses were more than just biological mechanisms? What if they were expressions of consciousness itself, layers of awareness that not only anchor us to reality but also expand ourContinueContinue reading “The Profound Language of Senses: Awakening to Higher States of Reality”
