Make ripples in the waters of kindness
The recent deaths of two people I knew many years ago hit me much harder than I would’ve expected. And, the reason it did, was that even though they’d only been in my life for six months, they provided me with valuable guidance and friendship during a difficult time.

Stubbornness can hijack our spiritual journey, part II
See the first half of this post. Here’s an example from my life: Initially, I decided to write a novel very closely based on what I endured that night at the Goldfield Hotel. I never considered presenting it as nonfiction. I hold my privacy dear, so it wasn’t an option. For a year, I wrote [...]

My Christianity has always been mystical
I’ve been studying Christian mysticism to better understand my spiritual path and prepare for a class I’m teaching on “God, Ghosts and the Afterlife” in October at Truckee Meadows Community College. Through this exploration, I’m discovering that I didn’t become a mystic after my transformational Goldfield Hotel experience. Rather, my life’s journey to seek out [...]
