We have to take it all just as it is! We cannot throw any of it away–or run away from any of it! We have to square up to it as well as we are able. Jesus said it well! “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. And no one comes to theContinue reading “June 21, 2026 – B”

I do not believe in the God of theology. Why would I? Even the theologians tell you you have to “take it on faith” what they tell you. Means they are making it up–or worse, telling you to take on faith what someone else told them to take on faith. “Faith” is nothing more thanContinue reading “June 15, 2026 – B”

Blue Ridges. Get it? Anyway we look at it, Jesus had all of the advantages, right? “God’s only son, Jesus Christ, our lord,” as the old confession of faith puts it. “God’s only son” should count for something, no? Evidently not. “Crucified, dead and buried.” Just like everyone else. Well, except for the “crucified” part,Continue reading “June 14, 2026 – D”
An Addition to my eBook, “A Handbook for the Spiritual Journey”
The Parable of the Prodigal Son as told by Jesus in the New Testament and recorded in Luke 15:11-32 is the story of the younger son of a farmer who goes to his father and asks for his inheritance, which his father grants.

The thing to remember about Jesus is that he didn’t have a way. “Thy will, not mine be done.” Now we all are of the opinion that this was addressed to “God the Father, Almighty,” because we have been told that for absolute ages. I am here to suggest to you that God the FatherContinue reading “May 27, 2026”

When Jesus said, “Pray without ceasing,” I interpret that to mean “Be always aware of that which is thought of as God with us.” Be always open to that which is with us always. How do we experience “that which is with us always”? “The something that is there”? “The something that is there” hasContinue reading “May 25, 2026”

The Parable of the Prodigal Son trumps Original Sin. Jesus told the Parable of the Prodigal Son to flip the fundamental religious assumption of the day and the foundation of Jewish religion, and religions world wide, that God was angry with the entire human race and that it is the burden of humans throughout everyContinue reading “May 04, 2026”

All religion worldwide (Cosmos-wide) throughout the ages is nothing more than collections of collections of projections of projections. Religion is projection. Religion is based on theology and theology is a collection of projections. “Revealed truth” is imagined truth, is Projected “truth.” Which has to be “taken on faith” because it has no actual, tangible, real,Continue reading “April 17- B, 2026”

Religions everywhere throughout time have all been grounded upon and expressive of the projections of those who created the religions. Religion is projection. As is practically everything else. We experience something internally and explain it by using a vocabulary based on external experiences. A volcano explodes and we explain it as the anger of theContinue reading “April 16, 2026”

The God Beams are the aspects of ordinary, everyday, reality that announce the presence of–the absolute truth of God in ways incapable of being experienced, understood, known in any other way. We know there is a God because we know of God through all these ways. These are the moments that are transparent to transcendenceContinue reading “April 07, 2026”

To be one with God, as Jesus was, is to be one with our own inner Psyche. In sync with the movement of life here, now. Not opposed to it. At war with it. At odds with it. Opposed to it at every turn. No “MY WAY NOW! We cannot live to have our way.Continue reading “April 2026”

How we live in response to the vicissitudes of life tells the tale. IS the tale. Life happens and we respond. And that is all there is. We generally respond in light of what we want to happen. Wanting and wanting-not lead the way in determining how we live. We want life to be likeContinue reading “February 05, 2026”
