It’s been quite a while since I’ve shared a psychology-related write-up. Recently, I saw a clip of liberal commentary that prompted a realization: even many otherwise balanced, reasonable people don’t fully understand what’s happening in the psyches of those on the radical ends of the political spectrum. And this phenomenon is not confined to oneContinueContinue reading “The Psychology of Political Conviction: Why Facts Often Fail to Change Minds”

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”
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”
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.”
Embers of Stardust: What Really Matters (An Introspection)
I learned something new today—something that solidified, almost with a gentle click, everything I’ve been cementing inside myself lately. I learned not just a fact or piece of trivia, but a quiet revelation that clarified what I already knew at a soul level: the rarest things in life are not always the most monetarily expensive,ContinueContinue reading “Embers of Stardust: What Really Matters (An Introspection)”
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”
A Supportive Message to the Ones Rebuilding Faith Outside the Walls
A message to the ones who stayed longer than they could explain— The messages in this post are often ones we see geared toward those struggling after breakups with partners or strife in their families. While these messages may absolutely fit those situations, this post is not about personal relationships. This post is about systems.ContinueContinue reading “A Supportive Message to the Ones Rebuilding Faith Outside the Walls”
The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?
As long time readers have already noticed, for the past couple of weeks I haven’t posted much. I’m aware—even I have noticed my own silence in almost uncomfortable ways, and felt that familiar tug: “Shouldn’t I be posting something? Shouldn’t I be showing up more?” But as I shared in my last blog post (andContinueContinue reading “The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?”
What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): The Many Layers of Grief in Caregiving
Caregiving is a profound, sacred journey that takes us through various emotional, physical, and spiritual landscapes. Yet, one of the most complex and often misunderstood aspects of caregiving is the grief that caregivers experience. This grief is not just tied to the death of a loved one but begins long before that final loss. AndContinueContinue reading “What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): The Many Layers of Grief in Caregiving”
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”
