Would the Politics of Jesus Offend You?

Why is it that the more polarized our world becomes, the harder it is to love those on the other side? Why do our politics seem more interested in drawing lines than building bridges? And what could we possibly learn from Jesus about the kind of politics that heal instead of divide?

Have We Missed the Way of Jesus? Living Beyond Religion in the Rhythm of Love

Life often feels like a maze — unpredictable, winding, and filled with choices that shape who we become. I’ve faced those moments when the path ahead seemed uncertain, when the weight of fear and doubt made it difficult to take the next step. But over the years, I’ve discovered that I’m not walking alone. There’s a loving Presence that meets me in the confusion and invites me to see life differently.

When Stress Becomes Overwhelming

Sometimes, life feels like it’s pressing in from every side. Responsibilities pile up. Deadlines loom. The news unsettles. People need things you’re not sure you have the energy to give. And underneath it all, there’s a silent panic: What if I can’t hold it all together?

What To Do When You Really Mess Up

And maybe, for a moment, you believe it. You hide. You replay the moment a hundred different ways. You wish you could rewind time. But here’s the deeper truth: messing up doesn’t disqualify you from love, worth, or peace.

Where in You Are YOU?

Discover the deeper truth of who and what you truly are. This blog explores the nature of consciousness, the mystery of our existence, and how awakening to our true essence transforms our mental wellbeing.
