“A Culture in Turmoil”

“Charlie Kirk was a human being. He was a dad and a father. His wife is now a widow. His two children, because of how young they are, will not have a personal memory of their dad. That’s been stolen from them by someone who thought they had the right to kill another human being.Continue reading ““A Culture in Turmoil””

Overwhelmed with Darkness

By: Gabriela Yareliz Our hearts are so heavy with grief, we don’t know where to look. Spiritually, you feel the darkness. I am tired of seeing Christian children killed in worship and going to school. I am tired of seeing law-abiding citizens get killed and criminals turned loose and defended. I am tired of theContinue reading “Overwhelmed with Darkness”

The Right Question

By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on a coaching call not long ago, and as a particular issue was being discussed, the coach’s question was: “What does love do next?” You could have heard a pin drop. That’s a profound question. We so often do things from our false self and ego— but what does loveContinue reading “The Right Question”

His wife always holds him firmly but gently, and sometimes, kisses his face under his baseball cap. Her arm is always around him. IContinue reading “True Love”

Noise, Despacito

“You need to build a mausoleum in your head with big iron doors so that nobody can get in there except you. You don’t let me in there, you don’t let June in there, you don’t let your manager in there, you don’t let the record company people in there. You have to decide forContinue reading “Noise, Despacito”

One Does Not Hold Truth

By: Gabriela Yareliz In recent times, I have noticed an interesting push for the Catholic Church that wasn’t as evident before. I think it’s important to spot these things and observe them. They are cultural moments of significance. It draws the question— where did this flow from? This post is not so much a criticismContinue reading “One Does Not Hold Truth”
