Seventh Sunday of Easter

Seventh Sunday of Easter. Rationally, this prayer is the Mother Lode. It is filled with golden nuggets. It would take a theologian a life time to mine the nuggets and still they would not have come near the finish. It is really loaded. Spiritually it raises some real questions. Who wrote it? Jesus never wrote anything.  Read more


Pentecost XVI Mark 8:27-38

Mark 8:27-38. "Who do you say that I am?" There is a very fine line between how you think "up and in" or "down and out". What you think about this parable is irrelevant. How you think, either abiding or not abiding, is what is relevant.  Read more


Pentecost IX John 6:1-21

This parable is the principle between what you think rationally and how you think spiritually. If you read it rationally you will apply the principle to understand the scripture.

Three Dimensional Spirituality is changing from low mood, what you are thinking, to high mood, how you are thinking.  Read more


“What” And “How” To Practice The Presence

Many people find it difficult to distinguish between a “what” and a “how”. If one does not know the difference between a “what” and a “how” they will think a “what” is a “how” and a “how” is a “what”. They then do not know what a “what” is because they think it is a “how”, and they do not know what a “how” is because they think it is a “what”. Trying to understand the difference is so confusing to some that they give up too early and never know the difference.  Read more
