A Reflection from Two Years Ago: Some Boxed Memories without Awareness

Posted on August 21, 2024December 28, 2024 by James

Oh, to see this truth in the midst of this moment was unbearable, and yet the Spirit of God kept me. At this point in my journey, I wasn’t sure I would live, much less find strength and joy. It amazes me that the Lord provides His power in truth even when we have given…

As I engage with the biblical narrative of the creation account in Genesis, I am increasingly drawn to the theological implications embedded within the text.

Living Freely Without Fear: A Call to the Church In the New Testament, the concept of freedom is central to the believer’s life. This freedom, as taught by Jesus and the apostles, isn’t just about being released from the bondage of sin; it’s about living in a state of spiritual liberty that reflects the gospel’s…

Unity of Mind, Part 1

Posted on August 8, 2024August 8, 2024 by James

The essence of Christian life, as outlined by Paul in Romans 12, demands a radical shift from self-centeredness to a communal existence grounded in God’s mercies. This transition from theological depth to practical application underscores the heart of Paul’s pastoral concern: how we live in light of divine grace. Central to this lived experience is…

Beyond the Surface: The Enduring Power of Wisdom, Authenticity, and Uniqueness in a World Obsessed with Aesthetics

Posted on July 23, 2024December 28, 2024 by James

Aesthetic bias is a pervasive issue that extends far beyond superficial judgments about appearance; it reflects a deep-seated immaturity in how society evaluates expertise, success, and worth. This bias suggests that how someone looks can be a valid measure of their abilities or the quality of their work. It is both misguided and fundamentally detrimental…

Don’t Master Life. Discover it. [Ep 141]

Posted on July 2, 2024December 28, 2024 by James

Self-improvement. A testament often heralded but fraught with peril. Indeed, we should strive to work on ourselves, but the reflection of my soul once revealed a man I neither desired to be nor to present to the world.
