2/22/26 I am starting a new 10‑week series called Theodynamics. Let me begin with a simple question: when we say “God,” what do we picture? For many of us, the picture is a little vague. Maybe God is a distant ruler in the sky – real, but far away. Maybe He is more like a principle: “be nice, be good, try harder.” Or maybe He is mostly a crisis‑God: The One we run to as a last resort. But when we open the Bible, we do not meet a static idea. We meet a living God who speak

2/15/2026 2 Corinthians 3:18 “ But we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord .” There is a powerful law operating in the universe – God designed everything to move toward greater order, greater life, and greater love. This is not just a biological law; it is a spiritual law. Some call it the Law of Evolution and Growth. We are not meant to stay spiritual to

2/8/2026 John 13:34–35 “ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another .” I keep coming back to this verse. It is the message I need to hear; the message that Spirit whispers to me. In a world of chaos – political division, fear, violence, misinformation, and cultural fracture – God’s command to “love one anothe

2/1/2026 Galatians 5:22-23 – “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.” Two weeks ago, I began a 3-part series on how to discern the voice of Sprit from the voice of our Ego. We began with John 10:27 and tuning our ears to the Shepherd’s voice over Ego’s clamor. Last week, Hebrews 4:12 handed us the living filter – God’s Word as the two-edged sword, excising th

1/25/2026 Hebrews 4:12 “ For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart .” Last week from John 10:27, “ My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me ,” we learned to recognize the Shepherd’s voice amid the clamor of social media, self-doubt, and our ego’s urgent demands. We named the three biblical keys – s

1/18/2026 John 10:27 “ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me .” Our world screams at us through distractions – the clamor of social media, the whisper of self-doubt, the ego’s insistent demands, and yet God calls us to a higher listening. Today, I want to explore how to silence the noise of the world and hear Spirit’s gentle voice. The world and our ego bombard us with fear-driven messages: achieve more, compare endlessly, secure yourself first. Eg

1/11/2026 Revelation 21:4-5 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Behold, I make all things new. John relates a spiritual vision in this passage, of Christ describing what happens when we experience God’s presence: He dwells with us; He dries our tears, eliminates death and mourning and pain. The former things pass away, a

1/4/2026 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come. A new year is upon us and next week we will do the Letter to God and the Burning Bowl ceremony. This week I want to look at the idea of new beginnings and what it means to us, and the paradox of our spiritual identities. Each of us lives under a holy tension, between what we have been and what Christ is making us to be. I often use the phrase, “God is
