What is Christianity? Are you a Christian, or a New Ager? (Rebuild the walls!)

If we don’t define the faith, and the Jesus we serve, how can anyone be saved? My Granny was a Baptist deaconess, my mom’s side full of witchcraft and new age. I see so much of the struggle and confusion I faced reflected in the wavering of the modern church. Do you ever feel confused …

War in the East, Corruption in the West: Both are Spiritual

Shakespeare knew: “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” The bible is more precise: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the …

Being Human: Who we are, Where we came from, Where we’re headed

Have you noticed the assault on our humanity is escalating? It happens through abuse, cultural influences, education, technological advancements, medical coercion, and political messaging. This is significant not just from a biological or practical day-to-day level, but from a spiritual and eternal perspective as well. I may do a second part of this that talks …

Beauty & the Truth: Keys to Overcoming Trauma (The Opposite of “Self Help”)

My soul was saved by beauty and truth. Abused, abandoned, violated and gaslit, there was nobody to help me, and “self help” was even more impossible for a child than it is for grown adults. It is possible to learn for yourself, but I don’t think it’s possible to learn from yourself. It is not …

WandaVision, Trauma & Witchcraft: a commentary (spoilers)

I binge-watched WandaVision yesterday, and aside from it being super creative, found it very sad. Witchcraft is being glorified so blatantly and flagrantly! I love a good story, I love allegory and superhero movies not only because story is valuable, but because current entertainment teaches us about the state of the world we’re called to …

“Cuties”: Criminality vs. Art

I’ve been silent the past few months because 2020 is deafening, but today a friend shared a link defending the Netflix film, Cuties. I had to speak up. The concept of porn having a deeper message is not revolutionary. People have defended porn by calling it art for years. That’s one of the cop-outs used …

Watch Your Back: Guilt, Movements, & the Armour of God

Guilty or not guilty. This question is at the center of scripture and undergirds the Christian faith. It’s popular to emphasize our love connection with God and to encourage one another in this way: that God loves us, we are cherished, we have relationship with Him and that’s all He really wants. All of this …

2020 Rescue Remedy: Scriptures on Identity, Race & Unity

“I feel like the entire country is emotionally burnt out,” my friend told me. I laughed because she’s 100% right. Resources are flying around like crazy, so here are some resources for your spirit. “This is my comfort in my affliction, For Your word has given me life.” – Psalm 119:50 NKJV “It is the …

Love Not Judge: When Opinion Becomes Sin

I expect the world to get swept up in hate and judgment, but when the redeemed of the Man who said “love your enemies” lay down their crosses to pick up swords, something is wrong. Do you feel your government is oppressing you, or behaving ignorantly? Jesus: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You …

What Does the Bible Say about Conspiracy Theories?

It’s been very curious to me that Plandemic has circulated – in my social media circle, anyway – mainly through Christians. Is this more cultural backlash stemming from years of the fear of man? Frightened believers in North America didn’t seem to think they had a voice in a Liberal-dominated culture until Trump was put …
