  • Anger, But Don’t Miss the Mark

    If you read my older post, You Won’t Like Me When I’m Angry, you probably have a pretty good idea on my views about anger.  In that post I pointed out the time Jesus flipped out on the money changers and how in Ephesians 4:26, 27 it says “‘Be angry, and do not sin’:do not let the…

  • Bringing Life to Death

    Did you know that we all have the power to raise the dead? Do you doubt it? Well just see what happens the next time you show someone a kindness without thought of reward.  Here’s an example. I take my daughter Calista with me a lot of times when I visit the senior living facilities…

  • Unconditional You

    Have you ever told yourself how you would be a certain way if conditions were different?  “If I had this money, I’d be…”  If I grew up with this kind of family, I’d be…”  Yadda yadda yadda and the list goes on.  You know how it is.  We do it all the time.  And if…

  • Preparation I – For Those Illusion Flare ups

    As you may have noticed from the video, I’m still developing my language skills when it comes to speaking about “the illusion” of separation. The way I see it, the most honest thing I can do to express The Truth of the Oneness of Being is to be silent. However, because I am engaged in…

  • Happiness Is Overrated

    Turn up the VOLUME on this one.  I recorded on low and since I don’t edit these you’ll have to put in some extra effort to hear it.  I figure the unintentional stuff is part of the message too so get out of it what you will. So, let’s start with a question: How many of you…

  • Life Is an Infinite Journey

    Whenever my wife and travel or go on road trips they turn into these grand philosophical journeys where we discuss the meaning of life, spirituality, the nature of reality, and how to create an ideal life together.  Then we get into an argument over something silly just to see if we can practice what we…

  • Give Us Us Free!

    Give Us Us Free!

    Let me begin this post by declaring that contrary to some beliefs, one person cannot speak for their entire race, group, or culture.  As we all know there are innumerable diversities at work in every individual and my comments with regard to the subject of race, religion, culture, or any other category under which one…

  • And Then Comes Spring

    In the winter season, it is easy to forget that in spite of gray skies and lifeless looking trees, there is something wonderful happening.  Life is begetting life even when we cannot see it.  The same is true for the winters of our souls.  In each of our lives we experience seasons.  Things grow, blossom,…

  • Taking No For An Answer

    Sometimes I really get tired of trying to communicate to people because many of us only hear what we want to hear.  Especially these days when most people get so easily offended and feel like having everything go our way is a right.  If I could say it out of kindness, I’d say to them…

  • Forgive Them For They Know Not…

    In my last post, You Won’t Like Me When I’m Angry, I said that in my opinion the greatest miracle Jesus ever did was stay on the cross.  Well, if that was the greatest, the second was to pray for the people who were cheering to see him there.  Imagine that you have been betrayed.  It…
