“Do Not Let Your Left Hand Know…” – Secret Acts and Public Faith

  • unpastor
  • August 28, 2024
Jesus still goes a bit further with "Do not let your left hand know what your right is doing." At least, my brain thinks he did. Of the other measures Jesus called you and me to take to ensure that we don't mess it up, this one is pretty messed up and borderline impossible.To do this, literally, you have to ensure that all the thoughts and thinking involved in moving your right hand don't even cross to the other side of your brain. Our brains have two hemispheres, and each hemisphere controls the opposite side of the body. These hemispheres are bridged through the corpus callosum, lobes, brainstem, cerebellum, and others.

Beyond John 3:16: The Serpent In Redemption

  • Paule
  • July 4, 2024
John 3:16 often feels like a cliché, plastered on billboards and game signs, stripped of its profound meaning. But let's shift our focus to the verses just before it, where Jesus draws a parallel between Himself and the serpent Moses lifted in the wilderness. This imagery is not just historical or theological; it’s deeply personal. We, like the Israelites, grumble and turn against each other, becoming snakes in our impatience and selfishness. The serpent on the pole wasn’t just a divine solution; it was a mirror, forcing them to confront their sin and shame. Similarly, when we look at Jesus lifted on the cross, we’re invited to face our darkest selves, recognize our capacity for both harm and good, and embrace the transformative power of love and redemption.

Egongelicalism #1: The Clash of Ego in Evangelicalism

  • unpastor
  • June 7, 2024
The work of creating an image of myself who already exists, the work of trying to push that up and out while keeping the real me hidden and safe inside, and the work of dealing with communication breakdowns so I can filter Reality for the sake of my Ego is exhausting and unsustainable. From Genesis 1-3 through the Gospels and to Revelation, Ego is humanity’s issue. Jesus's Gospel was clearly an invitation to kill our egos and do the opposite—love.

Good & Bad Figs: Is Our Faith Rotten?

  • unpastor
  • April 26, 2024
God seems a lot less concerned with a nation's status and reputation in the world than we are. God doesn't see nations as set realities. They, like clouds, exist from the ones before and will be recycled. Nations come and go but God wants the heart of people. Later, He would intentionally drive Nebuchadnezzar crazy just to teach him that human kingdoms are delusional. The Apostles still thought Jesus was going to "restore the kingdom to Israel" (Acts 1:6) after his resurrection. God has been up to something much bigger for a lot longer. His actual Kingdom is "not of this world" (John 17:16).

Shedding Layers: My Journey of Deconstruction Here

  • unpastor
  • April 25, 2024
The lead-up to Easter was a whirlwind of emotions. Layers of insecurity peeled back, revealing a raw sense of self. It was both terrifying and exhilarating. Sobriety had brought progress, but purpose remained elusive. I was deconstructing the "me" I thought I was, desperately searching for the "me" I was meant to be. Fear, especially the fear of what others thought, had long been a snare. But as I surrendered to a higher power and embraced the true Gospel message, a newfound peace settled in. It wasn't about escaping the storm, but learning to navigate it with a more open heart. "Egongelical" – that's the word I came up with to describe this new faith journey, one that integrates psychology, mindset, and a healthy understanding of self with the core tenets of Christianity.
