• I created MetaNarratives to tell a personal story. It's a journey that began with a dramatic childhood involving a very dysfunctional family (many of whom are still alive), surviving a narcissist wife, alienation from my children, working through trauma memory, healing through journaling, and managing a nervous system that was out of control most of my life. This process has been supported by a few exceptional human beings and, ultimately, the Holy Spirit working through me to transform and rewire my brain.

    The journey involved being introduced to many books by wise people like Thomas Merton, Jordan Peterson, and Michael Heiser, and, of course, reading the Bible.

    The posts were written mainly for myself, but I chose to make them available to the public. If anything I share can is helpful, that's great. Otherwise, this site serves as a digital record of the issues I've been exploring and submitting to memory for various reasons. ~ Charles Hoffman

Currently, we are seeing a transition at play with new technologies being developed and put in place to replace the age-old Swift system we now use to move value and make payments across borders. Commonly referred to as Decentralized Finance, DEFI will drive down the cost of payments and settle transactions within seconds, increasing the velocity of money tremendously.

The Salvation Paradox

Our Messiah, Yeshua, whose name in Hebrew means to restore, clearly stated in the Temple at the beginning of his ministry that his mission was to save and restore as many of us as possible and preach salvation. His salvation message clearly stated that he would heal and restore us to health, bring us to an abundant life, and restore our relationship with God.

Holy Spirit, Revival

For decades we heard the cry from the pulpit of many denominations calling for a revival. It is evident that they either didn't understand the theology of the bible very well or their ontology was using the "bad" theology to drive a narrative, false narrative, to mesmerize their congregations and feed on their trauma-based, addictive behaviors and make much money in the process, tax-free.

Musings for June 5th, 2023

Personality leaks out but is not a constant. Most everyone I've ever known is in bondage to shame and emotional pain. And we never get to know the authentic self, the personality, because of it. And therefore, a relationship is rarely established with the person. This happens to most people we know. They go to the grave having no idea who they are. How sad!

Personality

Personality is God's gift to you, says Berdyav. He tells us that “personality is self-constructive, is the ideal of a man, is your soul.”

The Principalities, Powers, and Rulers

Yeshua reminded us in the gospel of John, Chapter 10, what these combatants are really up to. They have a simple agenda: to steal, kill and destroy us, our families, our country our planet in the name of rebellion against Jehova. And in the same breath, Yeshua tells us he had come to offer life, abundant life!

Messiah and Savior

Illusion…everything is a lie. And it began in the garden. A lie was offered to Eve that God was lying to her, and she chose to believe the serpent (father of lies) and disobeyed God anyway. Here were the first humans walking with God in the garden, and they fell for the serpent's lie!

The Genesis

We must understand that "Jehovah of the Elohim" wanted to have a relationship with us. He created us "a little higher than the angels." He created us "in His image and likeness." And His glory is bestowed on us because of His love for us. He loves, and He loves us. Take a moment with that statement.
