I'm really shocked at how pervasive "spiritual" thinking is today. Even in many churches they have yoga classes. Now of course there are many degrees of yoga spirituality and hopefully they are doing just the movements. But it used to be that way with almost all yoga classes. Now it seems...

Hello everyone, I'm slipping this message in here to tell you my story and how I found God with a little help :) My name is Michel , I'm 30 years old and I recently had a divine enlightenment 2 years ago. I was at my lowest point, having a lot of addiction problems with alcohol that I couldn't...
