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

Despite our departure from the garden due to disobedience, God's love for us has never wavered. His efforts to engage with us and show us how much we mean to Him are a constant and unwavering presence in our lives, a source of security and cherished love.
The apostle John invited us to fellowship with the congregation. A call to unity with the body of Christ. He wants to share what they have seen and heard. 1 John 1:3
