Thanks you for taking the time to visit this site! My name is Veron Graham, and I am a writer, and the life long explorer behind this experiment called Explore Truth. My goal here is to share my life journey, and to learn from the experiences of others, who, likewise, are wrestling with life's big questions, thinking critically about their spirituality, re-imagining traditional faith practices, and who take an unconventional approach to their lives and careers.

Sit Down And Shut Up

Every time we acquiesce to the fears that keep us from being all that we were meant to be, we become silent participators in the grand conspiracy of mediocrity. Aiders and abettors in the crime of a wasteful life. A slap in the face to the ancestors who didn't have the freedoms afforded us today, and yet we

Convergence: Faith Meets Real Life

It’s funny the things you find, only upon searching for them. Some folks call it the law of attraction, others call it the invisible hand of God, but I’ve definitely felt it upon being introduced to Donald Miller’s writing, and more recently in his involvement in a new project called Convergence.

Exploring The Inner & Outer World Through Travel

Brandon is a 23 year old who quit his comfortable corporate job in order to pick up and travel the world. His goal? To live the life of a global vagabond, and search for more meaning in his life. He took a break from racing up Mt. Sinai in Egypt on a rented scooter, to sit down and have a video conversation with me.

Want To Get Away?

I guess I always knew I wanted to do it.  Those days I was cooped up between the three cubicle walls, looking nervously at the clock, not sure of something. I felt it again when I would break away from the AC’d environment, and inhale a mountain of the Florida sun washed air.  73 degrees, outside, [...]

Be Strange, Be Very Strange

Sometimes being strange is looked at as an undesired place to be. I grew up in many ways, trying my best to fit in, and be normal.  Now, the older I’ve gotten, it appears that all the progressive changes, and advances society often seems to make, are due to those who had the courage to [...]

We’re Losing Our Religion

Something is happening in America's religious climate and many churches are feeling it. Whether they are acutely aware of it, or willing to undergo the fundamental changes needed to respond, is another matter. I just read a study from the Pew Report on Religion and Public Life which points to a significant change happening among the younger generation of the western world.

Lifestyle Design As I Understand It

You may have already been familiar with the term Lifestyle Design, from Tim Ferriss’ book, The 4-Hour Work Week.  Although I still feel that the provocative title to his book is over sensational, there is much to gain from what he discusses in the book.  For me, the general concept of intentionally living the life [...]
