Why Psychology Is Infiltrating the Movement
Even when we try to live as a part of “Zion” in our generation, we find the techniques of Wall Street and Hollywood are adopted and adapted to market the views of “Zion.” We find that even as we act in good faith, seeking good ends, we still lapse into using the tools and techniques…

Self-Righteousness or Self-Awareness
Has the pendulum swung too far to the other end, resulting in hardened hearts, stubbornness, and pride? Is the lesser law being taught and accepted because the higher law that was taught for so many years is not being accepted into our hearts and practiced? Is there now an abundance of self-righteousness instead of self-awareness?…

Anonymity
One of the reasons for privacy is not that our actions are questionable, but because others’ judgement and intentions could be. Sometimes, a lack of respect for privacy can lead one to feel entitled to exposing others’ anonymity. Exposing anonymity is an interesting demand to have of someone else.

Clarification
In a conversation I had today, I was made aware of some things that I would like to address here: I am nobody and nothing. I am a seeker of truth and in the act of seeking, I write in the hopes that what I discover can benefit others as well. I do not consider…

While Competing
In Denver’s 9th Parable, there is a King who loves his people and wishes to improve their health and vigor. To do so, he proposes a competition where “all would have to compete.” Why? To “test the citizen’s loyalty” and to “improve the lives of the citizens.” The King admitted that the skills displayed in…

Discussion Groups or Pondering & Praying
In a blog post back in 2012, Denver wrote about discussion groups. The greatest mischief of discussion groups lies in the mistaken impression that collective effort will help the individual in their personal journey. The path to God is solitary. It is between the individual and the Lord. Groups create an artificial environment. The stage erected…
