Your heart sings a unique melody in the world, one that was conceived of and created by the divine and holy presence of God. Your very essence is divine, and yet as you walk upon the spiritual path to enter more fully into a direct knowing and experience of God’s love, you may become aware of all the parts of yourself that do not trust God.
Metaphysical Chemicalization – The Fizz Of Spiritual GrowthAs we grow on our spiritual journeys, we are bound to run into moments when our old beliefs run head-on into our new-found understanding. When this happens, we experience some form of chemicalization. My term for this chemicalization experience is ‘Spiritual Sodium Bi-Carbs.’ Sodium Bi-Carbs are a great metaphor for the ‘perculating up’ of old belief systems and self-defeating assumptions that we allow to limit our good. Matthew 21:12-14 is a perfect example.
For Those Who Take Life Too SeriouslyThe fact is life is supposed to fun! Do you see fun on the faces of most of the people you come into contact with during a day? And what do they see when they look at your face? As a speaker specializing in personal empowerment, I find most audiences lately exhibit an unhealthy level of fear, stress, self esteem and a lack of energy.

Alchemy Of Healing – A Spiritual Formula For HealingOur bodies are our biological address. How long we live there and how well we live there pretty much depend on us. The alchemy of health is a mind, body, spirit equation. When all three are balanced we have perfect health. If they are out of sync, we end up like the character in the New Testament Gospel of Matthew who is paralyzed and can’t walk (Matt.9:2-8).
Example – The Greatest TeacherIf you want your kids to have good habits, you must live them too. A double standard does not work! Saying one thing and doing another is a waste of time.
Spiritual Maturity – The Greatest “Christian Gift”Spiritual maturity truly isn’t measured by how long you have been a Christian, or how often you go to church, how much or long that you pray, how often you read the Bible, or how good you can quote scripture. Spiritual maturity is measured by the relationship that you have with God, and all others. It’s measured by the amount of love inside you, and that flows out of you. This is our “Christian gift”.
Developing Your Inner Spiritual GuidanceAs the world becomes more connected through the technologies of communication, it is also becoming easier to become disconnected from our own selves. The necessary quiet time that develops our natural connection with intuition and spiritual guidance is no longer easily found. Living with an awakened inner guidance offers us the opportunity to experience a new creative dimension of life, and develops the precious gift of discernment, allowing us to see clearly what is true and what is not.
