Hello everyone, Dr. Mason here with a question and then an answer from Liz Stapelberg on Quora. Here is the question first. “If God isn't Trinity, then who was Jesus referring to when He said, 'Make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit'?" Now here is her answer to the question: she said, “God is not a name; it's a TITLE. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit is the Godhead. They are Three Persons in One Godhead. That means that the Father is God, the Son is God, and so is the Holy Spirit God. John 1:1 In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD... the Word is Jesus.

Reflecting on the afterlife is becoming a growing interest of mine for various reasons, not the least of which is that my life is succumbing to the inglorious process of the body losing energy and functionally degrading day by day. I have studied many religions and philosophies in search of answers to the question of why life is so frustratingly short and without apparent meaning.

There are moments when the veil thins around your life — when the signs get louder, the dreams get stranger, and something winged stirs in the dark. If you’re here, you already feel it. AlationAshes Veils Tarot is for the ones who sense the shift before it arrives. For the ones who carry old wounds like echoes. For the ones standing at a threshold they can’t name yet. My readings are not vague guidance or soft comfort. They are doorways — ritual, shadowed, and precise. Each one cuts through illusion, reveals what’s been pulling at you, and shows the path rising from the ashes beneath your feet. If you’re tired of guessing… If you’re done repeating the same patterns… If you feel the wings of your next chapter beating against the veil… Then step through. Your answers are already waiting.

Week 4 of the Good Lord, Deliver Us: The Great Litany as Survival Kit for the Via Media in Exile series, stretches us beyond our certainties. Intercession becomes exile’s discipline: praying for everyone, especially those we resist. Scripture reveals how God sees the heart, prepares a table in the presence of enemies, and opens the eyes of those the center overlooks. The Litany’s suffrages train us in humility, widening our prayer until it includes the whole world—those who wound us, those we blame, and those we fail to see. In praying for our enemies, our own hearts are changed, and we learn again to live as children of light.

Learning what a mustard seed was. In three different ways. How it was living here in the country in the garden and learning what faith is.

When God chose to send His Son to die for our sins, He didn't send Him to live a nice, long, peaceful life and die of old age. He sent Him to suffer unimaginable physical, mental, and emotional pain after only 30 years on this earth. What make us think it is ok to hide the truth of what happened to Him, for us? In what reality is it "too much" for even a child to know? One that is serious trouble with their faith!

My childhood was spent in submission to a system that wanted me squished into the pieces of an identity. Continue Reading...

Design vs. Chance: My Debate in Quora… James, a few of your points are reasonable, but several of your conclusions move beyond the evidence. First, no serious critic of modern evolutionary theory is arguing that science should stop revising models. The ability to revise models is one of the strengths of science. Newtonian mechanics was replaced by relativity in certain domains because new observations demanded a better framework. That example actually supports the argument some critics make: when explanatory limits appear, science sometimes requires a deeper model rather than assuming the current framework explains everything.

What began as an inherited gesture has become a quiet ache of reaching for water that isn’t there. The longing becomes prayer that resonates with Scripture and explores how holy water represents the blessing of what already exists rather than a demand for something new.

Week 3 in the Good Lord Deliver Us series about the Great Litany as Survival Guide for the Via Media in Exile. Lent eventually stops being symbolic and becomes real. By Week Three, the wilderness strips away our illusions of control and leaves us facing the ancient question rising from every displaced people: Is the Lord among us or not? This week’s movement in the Great Litany—the obsecrations—teaches the via media how to survive exile by letting go of outcomes and grounding hope in what God has already done. Through water from the rock, the warning of Psalm 95, Paul’s stubborn logic of hope, and the Samaritan woman’s encounter with living water, we learn the discipline of holy indifference: releasing our grip on the future and trusting the One who meets us in the wilderness. Lent invites us to loosen our buckets, relinquish our strategies, and pray with honesty: Good Lord, deliver us.

Revelation is an excellent place in the bible to look for inspiration and self improvement. The bible not only tells of the truth, but it tells of a hope that the Christians will be saved for all eternity. It is excellent news for staying the course and following the commandments.
