Happy New Year
Posted by Nanci on Friday, January 1, 2010 at 11:53am
I wish to extend warm greetings to all my friends in 2010. The beginning of 2010 is a time to reflect on the past year and look ahead to the future. It is also an instance where we spend quality time with friends and families sharing memories and laughter. More importantly that we should strive to do all the more for our Lord and Savior in order that our lights shine brighter to a lost and dying world.

My prayer for us all is that we live lives worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that we may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Christianity is not a mystical experience
Posted by Nanci on Friday, December 18, 2009 at 7:38pm
When I first became a Christian, I thought Christianity was a mystical experience, in the same way that Native Spirituality is. Basically, I was confused about the difference between Biblical meditation and occult meditation. For example, Psalm 1:2 says: “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.” Because I did not know how to differentiate between the word ‘meditation’ used in the Bible and the types of meditation used in man made religion, I believed that the word ‘meditation’ in the Bible meant the same thing as the occultic ‘altered states of consciousness’ practiced in Native Spirituality.

The Two Approaches

Examples of Native Regalia that should not be used to worship the one True God
Posted by Nanci on Tuesday, October 27, 2009 at 8:55am
Colossians 2:8 – See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. NIV

Below are some examples of Native regalia that we should not use to worship the True God, as they are an abomination. The use of such items is idolatry and does not lead to salvation or holiness, nor does their use bring glory, honor and exaltation to God.

A shaman is a religious leader who usually functions in an animistic culture to contact the spirit world in order to be empowered by it. He is expected to protect the tribe, cure illness, predict the future (divination), and offer practical advice.
