The book of Jonah isn't just a cute children's story about a magic whale. It's a shocking, disturbing, and unsettling story that disrupts our biases, labels, and categories of "us" vs "them". It's about the death of a man's worldview, a nation's invitation to healing, and a God's infinite compassion. This story is about radical forgiveness. It's about me and you. Do we need to be thrown overboard so we can see the world in a new light? May we come to see through the story of Jonah that God is far more loving, compassionate, and generous than we could ever imagine. And may that compassion flow to us, through us, and from us.

There is more to who we are than we know right now. Even if we were reduced down to our smallest subatomic particles, we still wouldn't locate our essence. What is soul? Can it be proven? Measured? In this series, we journey into the internal universe. This journey will lead us to uncover our core soul knowledge. We'll learn to distinguish our true self from our false self and learn to operate and function from our true essence. The result: we are freed from entanglement with form, thought, and ego, and we will never be able to see the world, ourselves, and others in the old way again.

What is happening in the world? Are things changing on an epic, historic scale? How is it changing and why? Are there spiritual reasons for why things are unfolding the way they are? What's happening in you? Are you hearing and seeing new things that leave you feeling unsettled, uncertain, and uneasy? What does growth and maturity look like in the new world we find ourselves in?
