Saying 102 Jesus said, “Woe to the Pharisees, for they are like a dog sleeping in the manger of the cattle; for he neither eats nor does he let the cattle eat.” Many scholars agree that this was a common proverb in both the Greek

If you don’t know what Project 2025 is, you need to stop whatever you’re doing and take the time to find out more. Why? Because, if they have their way, you could be living in a real-life version of The Handmaid’s Tale a year from now. I’m not joking. I’ll do my best to summarize Project 2025 for you in this article, but you really owe it to yourself to go down the rabbit hole to see first-hand what this... Read more

Remembering Michael Knott: The Family Man in Black

Last updated on: March 15, 2024 at 1:34 am   By Keith Giles

Michael Gerard Knott passed away on Tuesday, March 12, 2024. I can’t say we were close, but I considered him a friend. I first discovered his music when I was in college, but after graduation I found myself in Southern California working for Diamante Music Group in Newport Beach. At my very first sales conference, Michael Knott walked in, dressed in black, and carrying a worn out acoustic guitar. He put one knee up on a chair and he played... Read more

More Than Human

Over the weekend, I picked up a book that I had started to read over a year ago and laid aside for awhile. The book seemed to call to me, as if perhaps I was now fully prepared to receive the insights that were hidden for me there. The book, “The Untethered Soul” by Michael A. Singer, initially intrigued me at the time, but I felt that it was exploring ideas that either I wasn’t quite ready for, or perhaps... Read more

This is where we found him The bird on fire Wings ablaze among the leaves Flying between the daylight and the dawn of another day This is where he lay down to die Where he folded his wings in the dark And said “enough” This is where we let him lie alone Undisturbed and growing cold Wisps of smoke and steam rising from his wings Like unanswered question marks Circling and dancing Disappearing in the shadows We stood silent Afraid... Read more

Unknowing: The New Religion of Unlearning

Over the weekend I was reading through Ursula K. Le Guin’s masterful novel THE LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS and in Chapter 5 “The Domestication of Hunch” there is a reference to a group of Foretellers in a distant land where the protagonist travels to ask a question. The culture in this strange place is centered around a religious cult that honors ignorance and doubts wisdom. This bit of dialog near the end of the chapter really intrigued me. It’s when... Read more
