St. Mary Magdalene skull

Welcome to part 2 of this two-part episode about the mysteries of St. Mary Magdalene.

We’ll also […]

St. Mary Magdalene, also known as Mary of Magdala, is one of the most important figures in Christianity due to her close connection with Jesus. St. Mary Magdalene’s hometown was “Magdala,” a village on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. This is why she is known as Mary of Magdala in the New Testament. […]

Emptiness of spiritual desolation

Last week we explored Spiritual Consolation, that enriching state where you feel connected to the Divine. It’s that uplifting sensation of being ‘in tune’ with your soul’s deepest calling. And now, we’re pivoting to the concept of Spiritual Desolation, an experience characterized by a feeling of disconnection and distance from God. From this post, you […]

How to find inner peace

I went for a walk during lunchtime today, a sunny Spring day on Vancouver Island. The Camellia trees were in full bloom, and cherry blossoms were dancing around like little fluffy pompoms. The locals call this time of year “Spring Winter” because the pink and red petals are blanketing the ground like snow. On a […]

Teilhard de Chardin's theology of interconnectedness

People often talk about the supposed conflict between science and religion (particularly Christianity). Evolution is one of the most well-known arenas of this conflict that comes to mind for people. But if there’s one person whose work and theological ideas contradict the belief that science and religion cannot coexist, it’s Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. This […]

Blessed are those who are persecuted

We’ve reached the eighth and final Beatitude in our series! The Beatitudes present us with a series of counterintuitive statements to reflect on. But perhaps none is so counterintuitive as this one. The final Beatitude presents a paradox that challenges our conventional understanding of what a blessing is. It says, “Blessed are those who are […]

cosmic consciousness and peacemakers

“Blessed are the peacemakers for, they shall be called the children of God.”  I love the seventh Beatitude. It is about having an expansive perspective of cosmic consciousness. The seventh key to happiness is the culmination of spiritual growth. It’s the outcome of embodying the essence of the first 6 keys to happiness in our […]

We’ve made it to my favorite of the Beatitudes, the sixth one: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” This one definitely stands out for the loftiness of its promised reward. Sure, some of the other Beatitudes speak of grand rewards like attaining the kingdom of heaven or inheriting the Earth, […]

Blessed are the meek: third Beatitude

Today we are covering the third Beatitude: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” This might be the most misunderstood of them all because we are so upside down in regard to who should inherit the earth—in other words, who should be deemed successful. It’s certainly not “meek people,” right? This is […]

Blessed Are They That Mourn: The Second Beatitude

“Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.” The second Beatitude is a tough one for many people. At first glance, it seems to fall into the same cluster of hollow consolations that people default to when struggling to find the right words to comfort a grieving friend: “God works in mysterious ways,” […]
