Spirituality – Getting Older
As you get older, your understanding of spirituality often changes. If we define spirituality as the use of energy for health, happiness, and well-being, it begins to take on a deeper, more practical meaning with age. Listening to Those Who Are Younger You start to notice this especially when you listen to people who are […]
Consciousness and the Holy Spirit
The Christian church is built upon the Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Over time, many churches have used these ideas through rituals, emotion, and scripture to shape belief and guide followers. In my view, however, the deeper truth is much simpler. Divine Consciousness: The True Nature of the Holy Spirit What […]
Spirituality – Reflect on Your Inner Child
What Is the Inner Child? The idea of the “inner child” is a powerful one. It represents who you were when you were young, your emotions, thoughts, and early behaviors. That part of you never disappears. It stays with you, influencing your reactions and shaping how you experience life. Psychologist Carl Jung described this as […]
One Love – Definitions of Love and Peace
The question of what love and peace truly are is as old as humanity itself. Everyone has their own interpretation, and One Love is built on exploring these meanings. Its purpose is simple: to help bring love and peace into people’s lives. The only way to do that is through understanding, because once people understand, […]
Mental – What Is It All About?
Each day, I find myself wondering what life is really about. I’m 77 years old and have raised four children, two of my own and two adopted. At this stage of life, I still have a great deal of energy, and I often reflect on the meaning of it all. When I was younger, this […]

Spirituality: Morning Meditation
After writing about Jesus and religion, it is time to focus on something that truly energizes us, an outdoor morning meditation. It is one thing to believe in traditional religion, but for us, spirituality is also about our energy and how we use it throughout the day. Religion may provide faith or a sense of […]
One Love – Jesus, Faith, and Paul
One of the most interesting aspects of the New Testament is the contrast between what Jesus is recorded as saying and what Paul later wrote. In the One Love perspective, we often refer to Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount as one of his most significant teachings. Jesus and Paul: Two Different Voices Notably, this sermon […]
One Love – Paul of Tarsus
Who started Christianity and shaped the stories of Jesus as we know them today? To understand this, many historians point to Paul of Tarsus. Paul of Tarsus: The Man Who Never Met Jesus Paul was not one of the original twelve apostles appointed by Jesus, and according to tradition, he never met Jesus in person. […]
Spirituality – Food Part 2: Vegan or Not
Our definition of spirituality is the use of energy for health, happiness, and overall well-being. In the Star of Light’s One Love perspective, we support life as a high expression of consciousness.
