Sometimes in our everyday lives we can get so used to our every day habits, emotions, diets, etc. that we don't really stop and question why and where they came from. Do our habits and thinking come from our own source of original thought, or are we influenced somehow to beleive "this is the right … Continue reading Subtle Thought Patterns that are Stumbling Blocks to God being Involved in Your Life

Why Cults are So Believable and Hard to Leave
Why are cults so believable and hard to leave or get out of? This question is loaded with many different perspectives, lenses, and opinions. I am exploring this through the perspective of a current non-denominational Christian. First, we need to know what a cult is. Many often associate cults in a negative perspective. A cult … Continue reading Why Cults are So Believable and Hard to Leave
The Sacrifice That Gets Us Unstuck
When someone thinks of sacrifice, they probably think of old biblical traditions, or something people do in those one weird religions and cults we hear about. Honestly that might be true, but sacrifice holds a whole new meaning when we use it for our own good. Here's what I mean. Sacrifices exist. They have been … Continue reading The Sacrifice That Gets Us Unstuck
New Show “Upload” Lacks Truth
Let's face it, most of us have an interest when it comes to a series or a movie predicting the afterlife. Humans are curious creatures in regard to the unknowns of life after death, and this is no secret to pop culture.

This is a common phrase that is used - in songs, in quotes, a saying in conversations. Although I … Continue reading Talk is Cheap

Meditating about a Kingdom Lifestyle
God has really been pressing information about His Kingdom to the church lately. Isn't funny how most of us haven't even been a part of a kingdom on earth, so naturally we just assume God's Kingdom will be like a country? (Because that's what we're used to) Yet, surely we should know that a Kingdom … Continue reading Meditating about a Kingdom Lifestyle
God is Within Us, Literally in our DNA
The other day the preacher said that sometimes people nowadays think that people "need to be freed from the bondage of God/religion" its funny because usually those same people are in bondage to a certain sin or misunderstood God with all the religious fog. Having a relationship with God is not a binding obligation, but … Continue reading God is Within Us, Literally in our DNA
My Thoughts on Jesus and Easter
When it comes to Easter, I believe many think that this is only a holiday for religious people. I think people should put all these "Churchy," "religious" and "Jesus-freak" labels aside and actually explore God's nature without society's influence of domesticating it or without compartmentalizing God towards religion. So in a podcast I was listening … Continue reading My Thoughts on Jesus and Easter
