Practices to help us move in our evolving faith journey.
Read MoreAfter all, God is love. And love is all you need, right?
But what if this longing isn’t for something or someone external to us—even God—but rather for something deeper within. A force and energy we need not search to find, for it is of our true essence. It comes rooted in our intrinsic value and present in our truest being. And yet, for so many, especially in this day and age, it is missing. It has been lost, covered over, denied, even forgotten.
It is our divine vitality.
And we need it desperately in this time, perhaps now more than ever.
Read MoreAs we move through our evolving journey, we come into our being made new. The old has fallen away and we have been released. The new has come and is still unfolding before us.
This week, we focus on the movement of embrace. While this is often about welcoming what is emerging and coming forth anew, it crucially also includes embracing previous aspects of our true being that have been lost, scattered, or forgotten.
This is the integration that comes after differentiation, recovering and including the genuine elements of our being that are still vital and essential to who we truly are, but have become subsumed or displaced in some way.
As the old saying goes, “don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.”

Read MoreThe time has come now for us to evolve and become the mystics and great countless saints of today. Innumerable because of our ubiquity. Immeasurable because we are not singular, set-apart extraordinary individuals, but rather because we are becoming and WeCreating an empowered and enlivened collective. A vast communal network across the globe, inhabiting and enacting (abiding and attending) as the mystical Body of Christ, transforming the world in ways big and small.
Read MoreFrom the beckoning of our invitation to holistic repentance, personally and collectively, we have entered into the creative act of becoming, practicing metanoia.
Now, we are invited from the truth of our deepest being to receive the gift of being released, through no act or power of our own. We are offered the freedom to be in the release that has already been made true.
In our movements of being: release, embrace, inhabit—the movement of release is both something we choose and step into, as well as something that is offered to us.
Read MoreRepentance can be a creative act—a movement arising from deep within, inviting us into greater freedom and new discoveries. Rather than giving our energy to what limits, blocks, or keeps us stuck, we can engage in sacred turning as a practice of repair, balance, and healing. In so doing, we restore the flow of life, making space for the creative force of divine love to move through us.
If “Christianity” repents, as we explored last week, what is my response? What is my part in it?
Read More“Repent” is a loaded word in and of itself, but what it means in its roots is to turn around, to stop going in the direction you have been and return back. In the language Jesus spoke, Aramaic, it would have held a connotation of returning back to God.
And where is God?
How have we left God and moved away in the wrong direction?
From the beckoning of our invitation to worshipful spiritual creativity, we have opened to WeCreating arisings and through our dreams and inspirations onto the blank canvas, as acts of becoming, practicing our craft of WeCreativity among us.
Now, we are invited to the depth of simply being who we are in divine glory.
Read MoreMoving into a state of worship can be a process we undergo in order to align ourselves in right relation to both our inner being and our “object” of worship. Expressions of devotion and reverence come with authenticity when we are moving with depth of feeling within. We find our admiration and reverence to something greater and relate from the truth of our authentic being with praise, gratitude, love, and more.
In moving to worship as and from the face of God-Being-Us, the “object” is arising from within. The “greater” is coming from the inner divine Source, emerging from the depth of God who is closer to us than we are to ourselves.
