Emergence eBook and the changing seasons

Love and Blessings As some of you are aware, the Emergence eBook was launched last week. I hope many of you had the opportunity to read it and that you were able to take from it something that is helpful on your own journey. As it being my first attempt at an eBook, I am …

Our Field of Being – Conscious Participation

“In other words, you decide to act as if existence might be justified by its goodness—if only you behaved properly. And it is that decision, that declaration of existential faith, that allows you to overcome nihilism, and resentment, and arrogance. It is that declaration of faith that keeps hatred of Being, with all its attendant …

Great Chain of Being and Concentric Circles

Here is a post from a previous blog I had that I feel touches on some interesting ideas worth sharing again.

Blog Update – New sections and content

Love and Blessings! I had the day off from work today, and the weather kept me inside (lots of grey and rain). So I decided to capitalize on the opportunity to do some writing for my blog and re-vamp some of the sections to add a dimension of professionalism and to develop the launchpad for …

And it was Good

I am reminded of a book written by Neale Donald Walsch called, “When everything Changes; Change Everything”. Though I didn’t read that book in its entirety, the title alone makes clear the …

God’s Reckless [Emergent] Love

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc6SSHuZvQE As a first installment to the Emergent Christian Lexicon blog series, I was guided to take inspiration from one of my favorite worship songs, Reckless Love, and take a look at some of the lyrics which I feel can be understood from varying points of view. Once you give the song a first listen …

The Emergent Christian Lexicon

Over the last couple of years, I have grown to appreciate and even adore Christian Worship music. It was not a genre of music I have ever liked, even when my comfort level of Christianity began to increase. I experienced the language of mainstream Christianity through a conditioned lens, not yet transformed enough to re-work …
