    A Fiery Kiss: Pentecost as Our Engagement to Christ

    A Fiery Kiss: Pentecost as Our Engagement to Christ

    Pentecost is often seen as the birthday of the Church or the dramatic arrival of the Holy Spirit. But viewed through the lens of covenantal intimacy, it becomes something far more tender and more terrifying: the engagement of the Church to Christ, sealed not with a ring, but with a…

    Resurrected Words: Seeing Scarred Hands Frees Death’s Captives

    Resurrected Words: Seeing Scarred Hands Frees Death’s Captives

    From the garden with Mary Magdalene, to the road to Emmaus, to the locked room with Thomas, and finally to the mount of commissioning—resurrection unfolds through the eyes: Jesus seeing us, and us finally seeing Him. In each moment, His scarred hands are not merely evidence of past pain—they are…

    Deaf Spots, Negotiated Selves, and the Quest for True Communion

    Deaf Spots, Negotiated Selves, and the Quest for True Communion

    This essay explores the anatomy of that deafness—not as moral failure, but as a structure of survival, encoded in what we now call the Negotiated Selves. And it points toward a more compassionate, communal vision of integration: not as personal wholeness alone, but as the shared practice of hearing for…

    The Cross as Key to Taking and Yielding Authority

    The Cross as Key to Taking and Yielding Authority

    In Christian leadership, spiritual growth, and community life, one of the most striking paradoxes is this: we are invited to walk in great authority, and yet, the path to that authority passes through radical surrender. / For many, this journey is hindered not by theological ignorance or moral failing, but…

    Is It Unbiblical for Protestants to Reject Mormonism for Being Unbiblical?

    That is, can Protestants—who themselves broke with centuries of tradition in the name of sola scriptura—consistently exclude Mormons simply because they appeal to different sources of authority or interpret Scripture differently?

    In an age where both yoga and Christianity risk disembodiment—yoga reduced to mere physical exercise, and Christianity to abstract doctrine—we must return to the incarnational heart of both traditions.
