Life rarely follows our scripts. It moves unpredictably, drawing us into moments we’d prefer to avoid. Yet trusting Divine Providence means cultivating a quiet, steady "yes", even when our first instinct is a firm "no." Each surrendered "yes" deepens our faith, shaping us into…

Moving successfully from one season of life into the next is key. Remaining stable through instability and certain during uncertainty is aided by trusted voices. Let me and my longtime friend, Dr. @markchironna ,help you have a winning season. LIVE WEBINAR Sat. Aug. 2nd, 8PM EST

Cancel culture arises from our deep human longing for justice, yet often leaves us with only alienation. True justice seeks healing instead of humiliation and reconciliation rather than revenge. If we do not intentionally choose pathways toward restoration instead of isolation,…

When someone makes a mistake or says something misguided, culture may rush to judgment. But a healing community understands we are all more than our worst moments. Grace restores dignity. Compassion rebuilds trust. Before joining in canceling, pause and consider what kind of…

Accepting what we can’t change opens the door to what we can. When we stop wrestling with reality, we have energy left for growth, creativity, and fresh beginnings.

Grief often walks with acceptance. We grieve for what we hoped would be, relationships that changed, or dreams we had to release. Let yourself grieve, it’s part of healing.

Acceptance is easier said than done. It’s okay if it feels difficult. Struggle isn’t failure; it’s the very human process of learning to let go.

Acceptance isn’t resignation. It’s honestly facing reality as it is, not as we wish it would be. This honesty frees us to pour energy into areas we can truly influence.

When Jesus says the Spirit will not speak on His own but will speak what He hears and declare what is Christ’s, He’s showing us that the Spirit’s role is deeply kenotic. That is, He empties Himself in order to make Christ known. He is not the source of His own message. He…

We don’t live in a fairy tale. In this temporal world, there is no neatly wrapped “happily ever after.” To chase that illusion is to risk continual disappointment and confusion. But there’s something deeper and far more hopeful available to us. Accepting that life is imperfect,…

The Babylonian Talmud records a debate: who should take precedence, the Sinai, who carries the weight of accumulated knowledge, or the “Oker Harim” (the “uprooter of mountains), the one who excels in piercing analysis and clever argument? The text leans toward the Sinai. The…

We prefer predictability, but God often offers mystery. Learning to say "yes" means embracing the unknown with courage rather than resistance. When we trust that Providence holds every detail, our hesitant "yes" can open doors we never imagined possible.

Impermanence teaches us to cherish moments, relationships, and experiences deeply, precisely because they don’t last forever. There’s a grace in knowing this, an invitation to presence, appreciation, and love that doesn’t cling, but honors each fleeting gift.

Nothing stays the same forever. Change is constant, inevitable, and at times painful. But there’s grace available, grace to hold gently what we cannot keep, and to release gratefully what has run its course. Embracing impermanence doesn’t lessen the value of our experiences; it…

Truth-telling is risky because it always disrupts comfortable illusions. But illusions always prove more dangerous in the end. History reveals again and again: Deception eventually fails. Truth eventually triumphs. Our calling is clear: Speak truth clearly, embody truth…

There is an ancient spiritual law recognized by every major tradition: “What we sow, we inevitably reap.” Movements and systems built on deception, exploitation, or hidden agendas eventually experience collapse. This is indeed how reality works. Let’s be clear-minded,…

History shows clearly that When truth is persistently hidden, it inevitably emerges, often dramatically and always disruptively. Movements and leaders built on deception, self-interest, and false promises eventually face consequences. Our responsibility isn’t merely critique.…

Regret can take a striking toll on our psyche. It lingers like an unwelcome guest, often replaying our past mistakes, missed opportunities, or misunderstood moments. Left unchecked, regret quietly drains our emotional energy, clouds our spiritual perception, and diminishes our…
