This week along the way
This week I shared something that felt both vulnerable and celebratory—the story of how I stopped trying to choose between my Christian heritage and my mystical journey.
Turns out, they weren't competing for my attention... they were waiting to dance together.
I called it "officiating the marriage of my two spiritual lives," and honestly? Writing it felt like throwing a party I'd been planning for years without realizing it.
If you've ever felt torn between different parts of your spiritual story, or wondered if you have to choose between depth and tradition, this one's for you. Sometimes the most beautiful discoveries happen when we stop forcing either/or choices and start asking, "What if both could be true?"

This is the seventh post in my series, Grace Between the Lines: a journey through the beautifully strange overlap between Christian theology, mystical spirituality, and the books that have shaped me along the way.

Notes of the week
Homily of the week
You know that feeling when the noise in your head gets so loud you forget who you actually are? When the voices of fear, shame, and "not enough" start running the show?
Jesus meets a man living in exactly that chaos—tormented, exiled, lost in the tombs. But instead of avoiding the mess or trying to manage it, Jesus does something radical: He steps right into it and reminds the man of his true identity.
"Restored to Our Right Mind" is about that moment when the noise stops and you remember: Oh right, this is who I am. This is whose I am.
It's also about how our personal healing always leads us back into community—messy, complicated, beautiful community—because that's where grace does its best work.
Watch if you're ready to remember who you are underneath all the noise. Sometimes the most powerful sermon is simply showing up whole.
