Lions and tigers and bears OH MY!
ANYONE WHO HAS EVER SEEN THE AMERICAN CLASSIC FILM, “The Wizard of Oz,” is going to be familiar with the above phrase; but did you know that the film quite possibly goes deeper than the singing, dancing and feel-good narrative it presents? Watch my breakdown of how the movie, “The Wizard of Oz” just might hold the keys to unlocking the mystery of why each of us came to earth.
One thing’s for certain: you’ll probably never look at the film the same way again and perhaps might even explore your own life’s purpose!
All the Best!

Caught your “Why Kyrie” YouTube this morning. Brought me to your podcast. I saw the Wiz on stage with Stephanie and DeeDee Bridgwater and the great Mabel King. Those ladies lit up the stage!! Thank you for your rendition of Home; Home and Believe always make me emotional.
Had to come to your websites. Saw your TWoOz podcast. It caught my attention as this was the first movie I saw at age 2.5. It caught me even then. Have seen the original movie at least 100 times in my life—first as yearly TV entertainment then as an archetypical exploration of life. I so appreciate your analysis. Placing it in juxtaposition with Brian Weiss’s work —inspiring. (I have to go dig out his books again. I did regression/life-between-life hypnosis about 12 years ago.)
EXCELLENT video! Food for me! Reminded me of who I am and what I need to be doing. I am doing the “C-walk” at the moment (an inconvenient blessing) and had gotten a little muddled spiritually. (Yea, though I walk thru the valley of the SHADOW of death…) Time for me to throw some “water” on the situation, step out on faith to step up my “ministry” as a writer and prophet.
Thank you my brother. Today you are my angel, my touch stone, my Divine tap on the shoulder. And as with the song, Home, your podcast made me cry—again. Thank you for talking my language and reminding who I am. You are truly a Sun of God.
Peace and Blessing over you and your family.
Wow Judith! My eyes are watering after reading your comment. You know… we never know whose lives we touch through our respective works. I feel like I am doing just what I came here to do and your words have inspired me! I am overwhelmed and humbled at the same time. People have marveled at some of the things I’ve written and some of the comment I’ve shared via my YT channel. I tell them all the time that these things do not come from me, they come THROUGH me. I am humbled and praise The Most High Creator that he allowed me to be a vessel to serve water to another soul.
Thank you and if I can give you any word of unsolicited advice: as best as you are able, focus on the things that you want to do and not so much on your current circumstances. I know that it isn’t always easy, but that was the journey that I documented in “From Fear to Faith: A Survivor’s Story.”
Mindset is the key!
Love You!
Matt
