What it means to be a mystic

Sep 28 2024 20 mins

Let's rap about what it means to be a mystic. No, we're not talking about middle earth or fairies... it's the direct experiential knowing of oneness with God beyond thought or theory. Mystic is the realization of the union, the 'religion' is the way that realization finds its form; in my case, through the Way of Christ, or, the spirituality of Jesus. ***Sign up to receive the wee

The Hero's Journey is YOUR journey | The purpose of spiritual awakening might suprise you!

Jan 16 2024 26 mins

Joseph Campbell famously made popular the Hero's Journey, which is the spiritual journey. While it is more intricate that this, it can be seen in 3 phases (not always sequential, but usually): - Departure (from the known) - Initiation (in the unknown) - Return (contribution to the once known with unique experience, wisdom, and maturity gained from initiation) Each of us, if we acce

Don’t live like the masses | 3 practical yet esoteric spiritual practices for seasons of waiting

Dec 09 2023 17 mins

The shift is coming, but can you wait well? So often we rush things or become nihilistic. How can we live counter-culturally and BE in the in-between? For me, I'm often reminded of 3 points from a sermon I preached years ago. First, handle practical matters diligently and with mindfulness. Second, devote yourself to the ritual of spiritual practices. Third, commit yourself to commu

Alan Watts appeared in a dream and gave advice from the Bible | The narrow path isn’t what you think

Dec 04 2023 17 mins

Alan Watts appeared to me in a dream and began to speak about a popular passage in the Bible where Jesus talks about the wide road that leads to destruction and the narrow road that leads to life. Alan encouraged me that the narrow path is supposed to be unique, unknown and insecure at times... it's a narrow path! It's not going to be familiar. The familiar path is the wide path. A

The mystic meaning of being born again | Jesus’ non-dual teaching on enlightenment

Nov 20 2023 14 mins

Many Christians use the language of being “born again” but clearly don’t embody the true essence of spiritual awakening, which is the true mystic meaning of being born again. Enlightenment comes from being born from above. Jesus understood this, religious people usually don’t. P.S. this isn't a new idea; The contemplative Christian tradition has known this for hundreds of y

Hidden teaching revealed: ”I have not come to bring peace, but a sword” || Jesus’ esoteric teaching

Oct 28 2023 14 mins

Many people in the Western world look at virtually everything from an "exoteric" perspective, meaning from a broad, surface level understanding. Much of Jesus teaching calls followers to have "ears to hear" - implying an esoteric meaning to his teaching; esoteric being under the surface, hidden, or with special knowledge. The controversial teaching in Matthew 10 of Jesus telling hi
