Living by the Spirit: Moving as one with God
Living by the Spirit creates intimate oneness with God. That is, your spirit learns to move with God’s Spirit, as one moves with a lead partner in a dance.
Weary one, can we talk about the spirit realm?

Church leaders bullying people, rejecting God
Church leaders bullying people. Rejecting God. Leading their followers to do the same. The day I realized I'd been seeing it for years.

During that time too, I came to identify with David, the shepherd-poet-warrior-king, in ways I had not before. For David was also ostracized by people he trusted. And he cried out in distress - and in faith.
