Are You Hearing From God?

Nov 24, 2024

The theme of hearing God’s voice is the opening motif of Jordan Peterson’s new book, We Who Wrestle With God. Peterson explores the meaning of Elijah’s encounter with the “still small voice” (1 Kings 19). Advent is a season of waiting, and a time to remember that God is not silent.

Jan 13, 2024

God's story is not the progressive unfolding of Divine perfection, but rather a series of epic sagas interlaced with shocking messes. So, what does this tell us about God?

The Spiritual Energy of Epiphany

Jan 06, 2024

The season of Epiphany offers an opportunity to embody the spiritual energy of renewal and recommitment. Although New Years Day has passed, we can maintain the invigorating energy of making a fresh start by paying attention to the scriptural narratives and lessons of Epiphany. Spiritual energy is a grace gift of God that transforms our human perspective. When we gain the perspective of heaven—The Divine Perspective—it shifts and empowers our mental and emotional state of being.
