So, I had a weird dream the other night. My grandfather [Papa James] was helping me gather bedding for the night. I was with a musician friend and we were planning to sleep in the guest room which was under the ground and accessible only through a narrow opening. As we were standing outside the door to this underground bunker we saw a two-headed snake crawling near us. It was joined by the head and had two separate bodies [rather... Read more

Building The New Without Fighting The Old

Over the last few months I’ve been going through a bit of a paradigm shift. The main catalyst for this change has been my realization that we are not separated from God, and that our Divine Unity points to our connection with everyone and everything around us. This reality has been confirmed for me in the sayings of Jesus from the Gospel of Thomas, in the writings of the mystics from a variety of faith traditions, and in the scientific... Read more

Pay Attention To Your Red Flags

Last updated on: December 11, 2023 at 10:06 pm By Keith Giles

In a conversation with my friend, Jeremy Wood, the other day, he said something that really resonated with me: “If you’ve been in church for any length of time you’ve had more than your share of red flags.
