Camelot Again | Rev. Dave Lyman

Fri, 22 May 2026 14:36:25 -0700

As we live our life, we are in Divine coordination with God. There are precious moments when we encounter Camelot – a point in time when we are living our fullest life and it is magical. We will take a look at the difference between content of life and context of life. It is a call to action based on the fifth Unity principle. It is a challenge for us to pause and see where we are in our lives. It will be an opportunity to expand the Camelot in our lives, with some tools on how to do it.

Spiritual Life Center is an Interfaith, Unity community located in Sacramento, California for spiritual seekers and life explorers. We honor the many paths to God and support people of all faiths in learning and applying positive spiritual principles in their daily lives.

Myrtle Fillmore: The Mother of Unity | Rev. Rick Belous

Fri, 22 May 2026 14:26:05 -0700

While we often say that Charles and Myrtle Fillmore were the cofounders of Unity, much more is often said about Charles than Myrtle. This Mother’s Day, we will explore how Myrtle played a truly central and critical role in the Unity movement, and how her initial vision was the driving force that got it all started.

Pollyanna Was Right! |Rev. Rick Belous

Fri, 22 May 2026 14:12:24 -0700

It is often said, “Don’t be a Pollyanna.” The underlying meaning is: Don’t be naïvely and foolishly optimistic. But what if Pollyanna was right? Based on the Eleanor Porter novel, Pollyanna, we encounter a young woman who created a powerful network that pulled many out of cynicism and inspired them to become people who transformed lives to make a positive difference in the world.

From Hero to Zero | Palm Sunday Rev. Rick Belous

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:48:58 -0700

On Palm Sunday Jesus had a hero's welcome into Jerusalem. By Friday, he was crucified at Golgotha. "In this world we can quickly go from a hero to a zero in a nanosecond," Rev. Rick Belous points out. "But when we hold to spiritual principles it does not ultimately depend upon what the outside world is doing," he will add.

Quimby's Wild Ride | Lisa Lawson LUT

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:21:23 -0700

Myrtle Fillmore, co-founder of the Unity movement, found a cure for her lifelong ailment of tuberculosis while studying the new ideas about healing first developed by Phineas Parkhurst Quimby in the early nineteenth century. Discover Quimby’s exploration of mind cure and how it catalyzed the movement we know as New Thought, and how we can still use these powerful ideas in our lives today.

Thin Places in a Thick World | Rev. Rick Belous

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:09:27 -0700

Celtic spirituality often centers on so-called “thin places” where the boundary between the material world and spiritual places evaporates. On this St. Patrick’s weekend, Rev. Rick Belous will suggest ways we can experience these “thin places” in the modern “thick” world.

Keepers of the Flame in Difficult Times | Rev. Rick Belous

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 16:45:42 -0700

Many find the current state of affairs to be a difficult time. How should we approach this era? Rev. Rick Belous will suggest that we should be “Keepers of the Flame.” He will explain how it is often in times like these that some of the most creative thinking and quantum leaps take place.

Unity Principle #5: Walking the Walk | Rev. Rick Belous

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 16:28:45 -0700

Unity’s Fifth Principle is the action step. “We can have the best medicine, but it will do us no good if we just let it sit in the medicine cabinet,” Rev. Rick Belous points out. Join him as he suggests practical ways to walk the walk and not just talk the talk.

Black History: Transcendent Luminaries | Rev. Bryndé Lambert & Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 16:16:18 -0800

In celebration of Black History Month, this special service commemorates the contributions of four African American Leading Lights to New Thought Spirituality and Unity Consciousness, and the tenets they’ve enacted to advance humanity. Our guest speaker Rev. Bryndé Lambert’s passion is service through leadership and program development. An advocate for social justice, she empowers others to use spiritual principles to create personal and global change.

Unity Principle #4: Connecting Through Prayer | Lisa Lawson LUT

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 15:54:35 -0800

Prayer is as old as humanity. Across cultures and continents, our nature is to reach out to the Divine, for healing, for strength, for comfort. But what if we know the Divine as manifesting as us, as well as around us in others and the world? How then do we pray? Unity's foundational practice of prayer remains a transformative tool for modern life.

Unity Principle #3: Our Thoughts Are Prayers | Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 15:40:32 -0800

As the old Unity song puts it: “Our thoughts are prayers, and we are always praying. Our thoughts are prayers, take care of what you’re saying.” Unity’s third principle can truly be a foundation stone for our lives.

Unity Principle #2: The Divine Spark Within | Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 15:18:38 -0800

Unity’s Second Principal points to the Divine Spark that is within us all. This is our real essence of who we are. This truth can have a profound impact on our daily lives in the real world.

Unity Principle #1-One Presence & One Power | Rev. Rick Belous |

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 19:21:37 -0800

UNITY’s First Basic Principle sounds very easy - There is only One Presence and One Power: God the good, omnipotent. If we really believe this, then why is there so much anxiety, fear, and depression in the world? Join us to discover ways that we can make Unity’s First Principle more of a “living reality” in our lives.

Unity Principles: Where Do They Come From? | Rev. Rick Belous |

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 19:15:47 -0800

Week One of a series that will explore Unity’s Five Basic Principles. In this introduction we will hear the little known and surprising story behind where these powerful truths came from. The chronicle itself is a great spiritual lesson to be learned.

Blessing of World Religions | Rev. Janée Marth & Youth of Unity |

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 19:03:55 -0800

Join us as we honor the many paths to the one God of us all. Through meditation and prayer, we honor the major religions as we recite their prayers for peace. This service gives us the opportunity to reaffirm our soul’s desire for peace among the world religions, countries, and all people. World peace begins with inner peace.

White Stone Ceremony | Rev. Rick Belous |

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 18:56:45 -0800

Following the Burning Bowl Ceremony, we’ve identified what we wish to release, but many find it challenging to leave behind what no longer serves us. In the Book of Revelation we are told that if we try we will be given a white stone that will have a word on it that will give us the power to overcome. This is a time to connect with our divine essence and open to guidance for discovering our word or words for the coming year. As we hold our white stone, we invite Spirit to reveal a new name or idea to work with during the year. The name is written on the stone which becomes a meaningful reminder of our intention for spiritual connation and growth. Join us for this deeply moving and transformative experience.

Relighting the Fire | Rev. Rick Belous |

Sun, 04 Jan 2026 00:15:20 -0800

When we come to that metaphysical manger in our internal Bethlehem on Christmas and relight that spiritual fire, a key question arises: How can we keep the fire going? “For many of us things can get dusty, musty, and rusty pretty quickly,” Rev. Rick notes. But through our powers of zeal, love, and flowing in divine order we can keep that fire alive, he adds.

Glimpsing the Christ | Rev. Rick Belous |

Sun, 04 Jan 2026 00:12:49 -0800

In New Thought it is often said that Christmas is about the rebirth of the Christ Spirit (or Buddha nature, Divine Spark, etc.) inside of us. The powers of imagination, faith, and will play key roles in this essential process. Join Rev. Rick as we continue our metaphysical trip to Bethlehem.

Full Spectrum Living | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 15:37:16 -0800

We respond to specific colors in the same way we respond to specific life experiences. Being receptive to the full spectrum of light, we embrace the full spectrum of life. The constant current of information by technology interrupts the flow of life. We must always remember our universal need for connection with each other and the world we live in.

Awakening the Light of Our Genius | Faith in Action Week 4 | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 17:54:44 -0800

Creation is a collaborative process between the conscious and unconscious. Our choices are not solely influenced by conscious choices. Nearly all the brain’s work is conducted at the unconscious level, our intuition or inner knowing. It is important to trust our intuition, allowing it to guide our actions. Awareness is curative. Every thought, idea, and belief materializes into a chemical messenger that impacts our physiology and is simultaneously experienced by every cell in the body. By shifting our perspective, we can promote health and well-being.

Lighting Up Our Dreams | Faith In Action Week 3 | Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 17:41:36 -0800

All the things one has forgotten scream for help in dreams. Dreams involve the light of consciousness interacting with the unconscious mind. Light and consciousness are indivisible. Dreams reveal how our inner light interacts with our subconscious mind to show us deep truths about our lives. The unconscious is unavailable for analysis because there is no separate self to observe it. The ego creates a sense of separated self and by waking from this illusion we open up to pure awareness and discover the true genius within us.

Receiving our Inner Light | Faith In Action Week 2 | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 17:31:08 -0800

All the energy we take into our bodies is derived from the sun. Our cells are composed of ‘living water” which is structured by light, storing energy like a battery. We can supplement our energy by spending more time in natural sunlight. There is a force in the universe which will flow through us and produce miraculous results. The intelligence of life helps us discover who we are. The heart generates the body’s most powerful electromagnetic field. Love and intimacy are the most important factors in our lives.

Guided by Our Light | Faith In Action Week 1 | Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 17:59:12 -0700

Light is not merely a physical phenomenon but a fundamental force that guides all life. Science describes light as the foundation of reality; spiritual traditions identify it with the Creator. Our eyes respond to light’s guidance before our mind directs us. They not only receive light but also emit it, reflecting our inner state. Presence arises when our eyes and mind focus on the same place at the same time, guided by light.

A Cautionary Tale | Rev Rick Belous

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 16:52:54 -0700

For a number of years Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey’s Living Enrichment Center (LEC) was one of the leading New Thought and Inter-Faith centers in the world. However, with success came dissension, loose practices, and back-biting. A few years after LEC reached glorious heights, it crashed and burned, resulting in almost $11 million worth of embezzlement, jail time, and ultimately bankruptcy for the LEC. “What happened at the LEC is a cautionary tale that we should learn from as we build our dreams at the SLC. It can show us ways that we can remain true to Spirit,” Rev. Rick Belous suggests.

The Harvest | Rev. Rick Belous

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 16:44:24 -0700

By applying a few central spiritual principles, and with next to nothing except a profound faith, Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey was able to build the Living Enrichment Center in Oregon into one of the leading New Thought and Inter-Faith centers in the world. “You come away from this with a deep and renewed sense that these spiritual principles really work, and can be replicated anywhere,” Rev. Rick Belous says.

The Spirit of Generosity - Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 16:13:45 -0700

A key ingredient that is needed to make our dreams come true is a deep and abiding spirit of generosity. In building her field of dreams, Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey found that the ancient words “give, and it shall be given” are so true. “She had to overcome scarcity and lack consciousness before things started to grow. There is so much that we can learn from Rev. Mary’s story,” Rev. Rick Belous notes.

Dealing With Fear | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 16:01:01 -0700

Fear often is a major roadblock in the way of making our dreams a reality. Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey faced many fears while she was building the Living Enrichment Center. But she was able to lean into very powerful spiritual truths and tools that helped her overcome these fears. Rev Rick Belous will explain the spiritual principles Rev. Mary used that can help us overcome our fears.

Labor, AI, & Meaning | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 02 Sep 2025 13:31:43 -0700

Prior to his call to ministry, Rev. Rick was one of the first economists to work with the pioneers of Artificial Intelligence. “AI will shake up the world of work. Beyond the economic implications, I believe that AI will destroy a sense of ‘meaning’ for millions of white and blue collar workers,” Rev. Rick predicts. He believes that this ironically will create a new wave of spiritual seekers. Will communities like SLC be prepared to be of love and service for these new seekers?

Moving Beyond ‘Head’ Knowledge | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 02 Sep 2025 13:15:25 -0700

Leading New Thought teachers — from Myrtle Fillmore to Eric Butterworth — have found that intellectual knowledge of such things as affirmative prayer and the law of attraction is not enough to “move mountains.” If we want to see our dreams come true, it is important to turn intellectual knowledge into practical and experiential ‘heart knowledge’.

Setting Goals | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 02 Sep 2025 12:53:08 -0700

Many leading New Thought teachers have placed a key emphasis on goal setting. We will explore several ways that we can make certain that our goals align with Spirit when we are building on the individual, spiritual community, and even New Thought and Inter-Faith movement levels.

Prosperity Isn’t What You Think It Is | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 16:16:00 -0700

Most people have come to realize that true prosperity goes beyond having money, but some still have the idea that prosperity is about having, forgetting that true prosperity is a way of being.

Will We Judge or Will We Love? | Rev. Janée Marth

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 16:04:01 -0700

In John 7:24 Jesus tells us not to judge by appearance, but to judge with righteous judgement. Let's talk about what that means in our day to day lives, and how unconscious our judgements can be. A photographer, who in the course of knowing Mother Theresa, observed how she always approached each person with love, compassion, and the gift of her complete self. When asked about this she replied, "I never judge anyone because it doesn't allow me the time to love them." Let's use our time to Love!

Angels on High and on Earth | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Thu, 31 Jul 2025 17:24:47 -0700

The messengers of the One Source are with us at all times in all places. Our job is to learn to recognize them in their various forms and then listen. Listen and Learn.

How to Pray “Rightly” | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Thu, 31 Jul 2025 17:13:27 -0700

To pray “rightly” means to be in alignment with the flow of the universe. When you go against the flow, the energies are disrupted and so is your answer. This is neither right nor wrong, it is simply unproductive. When we learn to pray within our Selves, our focus is true, and the answer is here.

The 7 Living Virtues | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Thu, 31 Jul 2025 16:56:37 -0700

We’ve heard about the 7 Deadly Sins but there is a flip side that transmutes those negative ideas into constructive thoughts and actions that will improve your life.

Letting Go, Leaning In: The Spiritual Gift of Change | Rev. James Trapp

Thu, 31 Jul 2025 16:45:40 -0700

The only constant in life is change. While Spirit is changeless, at some point everything else we see transforms. When seen from a “God’s Eye View”, change can be powerful and purposeful. In his final talk as Senior Minister at Spiritual Life Center, Rev. James addresses how change can foster our personal and spiritual growth.

It’s OK to Ask for What You Want | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 18:48:42 -0700

We want to claim our good, but much of the time we are so focused on what we don’t want that we miss our opportunities. It’s ok to ask for what we want, because that is the only way we can claim our good.

The Call From Your Tomorrow | Rev. James Trapp

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 18:41:41 -0700

God has something perfect and wonderful in store for your life and the life of our world. It is part of the Divine Plan. But we must hear the call and then be willing to answer the call.

The Divine Father Principle | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 17:24:12 -0700

We come in through an earthly mother and father from whom we derive traits, limitations, and abilities. When Divine Father, the creative force, is paired with Divine Mother, the nourishing element, our Spiritual ideals are brought to fruition.

You Have a Spiritual Remote Control - Use It! | Rev. James Trapp

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 17:07:55 -0700

What we choose to look at and give our attention to in life, determines what our experiences will be. If we don’t like what that experience is, we can use our spiritual remote control and change the channel to a different perspective.

The Power of the Inward Glance | Rev. James Trapp

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 16:57:49 -0700

Jesus instructed his followers to go in the closet and pray in secret and Spirit will openly reward them. This message explains what it means to pray in secret and how we can access that tremendous power.

You Were Born to Create – Rev. James Trapp

Fri, 30 May 2025 21:45:56 -0700

We have the power to create whatever we choose to manifest in our life. To exercise that power, we must know and apply the art and science of the creative process.

Do You Believe in Miracles? – Rev. Deborah Phillips

Fri, 30 May 2025 21:25:05 -0700

When something happens that we thought was impossible, we call it a miracle. But the fact that it happened means that it was possible, so does that mean that miracles don’t exist?

Divine Mother Doesn’t Smother | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 13 May 2025 02:00:00 -0700

The Divine Mother aspect of the Universe loves each of us unconditionally regardless of what we think of ourselves or our perceived flaws. When we acknowledge the love that the Divine Feminine aspect of God always has for us, it reminds us who we truly are.

I AM: Your Two Most Powerful Words | Rev. James Trapp

Mon, 12 May 2025 20:11:34 -0700

There is an unlimited power within us. We can access and use that power for our benefit when we speak the words “I AM” wisely.

Chop Wood, Carry Water | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 29 Apr 2025 02:00:00 -0700

Enlightenment isn’t a destination. After the insights, after the cleansing, we are thrust back into everyday life. Understanding that life is a continuum of beginnings and endings can help us savor our mystical experiences and still get on with daily life with joy and gratitude.

You Too Shall Be Lifted Up! | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 22 Apr 2025 22:01:26 -0700

The Easter Story naturally focuses on the Story of Jesus and his resurrection. But the value of the story is not what happened over 2,000 years ago, but what it means for us today and how Jesus was not the great exception, but an example of our possibilities.

What Would Love Do? | Rev. Dr. Kim Clarity

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 16:55:36 -0700

Spiritual Life Center ministerial candidate speaks of how the awakening of Christ Consciousness is recognizing our divine nature and choosing love over fear.

From Breakdowns to Breakthroughs | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 17:27:40 -0700

Spiritual growth moves in cycles. Cycles include going through seeming upheavals before we fully experience the next level of our development. This talk will explain and ease concerns that come up when personal or societal breakdowns take place.

Lessons from the Laughing Buddha | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Tue, 01 Apr 2025 02:00:00 -0700

This may have happened to you or someone you know. You thought you had outgrown or recovered from some negative behaviors pattern, but there it is again nipping at your heels!

Forgiveness: Transformation Opportunities | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 02:00:00 -0700

No matter our past personal or collective tragedies, disappointments, or events, we can begin again and create a new future. To make that future, it is essential to understand how forgiveness is the window of opportunity to soar to new heights.

Keep on Keeping On | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 02:00:00 -0700

St. Patrick faced numerous challenges: enslavement, escape, and resistance to his missionary work. His unwavering determination offers a powerful lesson in overcoming adversity through faith. This aspect of St. Patrick’s Day reminds us of the strength found in spiritual conviction even during difficult times.

The Sacred Art of Critical Thinking | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 21:48:56 -0700

Spiritual Activism Can Transform Politics | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 04 Mar 2025 02:00:00 -0800

The most potent and transformative movements were not only political battles and spiritual awakenings. Learn how Gandhi, King, and Quaker women leveraged a force greater than policy to create political and societal change.

May the Words of My Mouth | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 25 Feb 2025 02:00:00 -0800

“May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Oh Lord” from Psalms is not telling us that we must walk on eggshells to please some external god. This scripture is a prayer we can use to keep our minds and hearts centered in love and compassion. It reminds us to ask three questions before speaking: it is necessary? Is it true? Is it kind?

Healing from Within | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 04 Feb 2025 13:38:01 -0800

When we become physically ill, we tend to look outside ourselves for solutions – and those solutions often give us relief. But when we rely only on outside sources for healing, we often find ourselves in the same or similar circumstance. When we work from the inside out to release the illness, we also can dissolve the deeper, inner cause. This is the way to True Healing.

The Truth About Abundance | Rev. James Trapp

Fri, 31 Jan 2025 15:42:16 -0800

The foundation of all abundance comes from a non-material substance. Proper understanding of this substance is the answer to lack in any area of your life and the key to spiritual prosperity.

The Truth About Abundance | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 21 Jan 2025 02:00:00 -0800

The foundation of all abundance comes from a non-material substance. Proper understanding of this substance is the answer to lack in any area of your life and the key to spiritual prosperity.

The Inner Light of Love | Rev. James Trapp

Mon, 30 Dec 2024 14:01:49 -0800

The energy of love is the essence of our Being. It is the glue that binds the entire human family together. When we bring out the light of love, we participate in the greatest harmonizing principle known to humankind.

The Inner Light of Joy | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Mon, 30 Dec 2024 13:47:24 -0800

It is possible to feel Joy in the midst of difficult circumstances? The answer is Yes because under it all the truth of our being sustains and supports us as we walk this path of Earthly life.

The Inner Light of Peace | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 10 Dec 2024 15:21:14 -0800

The Inner Light of Hope and Faith | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 03 Dec 2024 02:00:00 -0800

While Hope is the expectation of good in the future, it must be anchored in Faith. Faith is knowing the good we hope for is ours right now. These two qualities work hand in hand.

The Surprising Truth About Gratitude | Rev. James Trapp

Mon, 02 Dec 2024 20:33:09 -0800

Explore the transformative power of gratitude as a pathway to experiencing life's abundance. Discover how, through a mindset of gratitude, we elevate beyond life’s challenges, enriching our daily experiences and opening ourselves to more blessings.

Liberated by Love | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 19 Nov 2024 15:10:07 -0800

Only the love within your own heart will set you free from pain you perceive to be caused by others. Love begins with honesty. Love the part of yourself that is in dislike. The anger and hurt you feel are only calls for love. Be your own ally, never your own enemy, and always be on your side.

Come as you are, be as you wish. Feel IT now. (IT= Inner Truth)

Becoming Emotionally Free | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 12 Nov 2024 16:38:46 -0800

Spiritual evolution is not one-size-fits-all. Our journey is equal parts insight and authenticity, so it is OK to dislike. Dislike is the recognition of something that seems foreign to your core values, and can help us be more discerning. When you project anger, you allow dislike to control you, putting the power in someone else’s hands. You are the only person who needs to know Your Truth.

Abiding in the Joy of Change | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 05 Nov 2024 02:00:00 -0800

True abiding happiness comes from within because everything external changes. Circumstances may not change for the better, but you change for the better because you become a willing participant in life. We become willing when we become still and the ego stops negotiating. Disruptions to our plans are not punishment, they are openings to something higher and better. When adversity arises, meditate rather than mediate and look for the gifts. 

The Universe Always Has a Plan | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 29 Oct 2024 02:00:00 -0700

Time is the enemy of the ego and an ally to the Soul. Time reveals the greater purpose for an experience. Time helps you cultivate maturity and worthiness. Your choices determine how direct or circuitous your path will be. Be ready. Your participation is necessary but exhaustive effort is not required – we just need to agree with the Universe.

Embody Your Potential | Rev. James Trapp

Mon, 28 Oct 2024 20:44:27 -0700

We often feel bad about our happiness because of the unhappiness others may feel. When we shift from ego to Soul our light shines and raises the energy for all involved. The discovery of the inherent well-being of our true nature is ongoing. We do not need to dissolve darkness; we only need to shine. Breath is the living presence of well-being.

Release Blame, Embrace Thankfulness | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 15 Oct 2024 02:00:00 -0700

Blame is a projection of unhappiness. We don’t recognize our unhappiness because we don’t know how to be happy, and we project blame onto the outside world. Change and loss are how life evolves us out of ego and into alignment with our soul. Saying thank you for this gift in every situation releases attachment to the unconscious action of others and frees us emotionally.

You've Done Nothing Wrong | Rev. James Trapp

Fri, 11 Oct 2024 12:57:25 -0700

The things that happen are exactly what we need for our own evolution, which means that you have done nothing wrong. The spiritual journey is a transition out of the ego and into the soul. We can choose to see from the ego’s perspective or our soul’s perspective. Ego will blame while the soul will rejoice in the opportunity. Raising your vibration gives you a useful amount of space between you and your external experiences so you can make better choices.

From Out of the Blue | Rev. Deborah Phillips

Tue, 01 Oct 2024 02:00:00 -0700

Remember that time you wanted something, and it just showed up “out of the blue” and you were surprised and called it a miracle? It was really a result of your work in dissolving your sense of separation from God’s Presence, but we miss that part because we can’t see it working. We will explore ways to see the signs that God is working in our lives at all times in all ways.

Divine Enthusiasm | Rev. James Trapp

Mon, 30 Sep 2024 21:41:42 -0700

Enthusiasm comes from the Greek word “entheos,” which means to be full of, inspired by, and filled with God. To stay enthusiastic about life, you must eliminate any belief in separation from God's presence and prevent energy leaks when you pay attention to the wrong things. We will explore how to avoid those energy leaks and experience the joy that comes from divine enthusiasm.

Traces of the Trade | A Call for Love | Rev. Dain Perry

Tue, 17 Sep 2024 16:31:15 -0700

Rev. Dain Perry tells a personal story of his family’s history and connection with the slave trade, the cancer of racism, and the possibility of healing.

Big Demand, Inexhaustible Supply | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 10 Sep 2024 02:00:00 -0700

The Universe is always ready to provide a lavish abundance for every need. This generous supply is waiting for the proper demand and will manifest once a claim is made. In this journey, we will explore the various ways to claim our good, providing you with a roadmap to spiritual abundance.

Work From Your Rest | Rev. James Trapp

Tue, 03 Sep 2024 02:00:00 -0700

Let's challenge the conventional idea of Labor Day, which suggests we rest from our work. What if the key to productivity and creativity lies in working from our rest? We will explore the benefits of this nontraditional approach to labor.
