Jesus’ Last Name is Not Christ
Most of us know that we celebrate the birth of Jesus at Christmas. But very few of us know about the birth of Christ. If we don’t know there’s is a difference between Christ & Jesus, then we definitely don’t understand the difference between Christ Jesus and Jesus Christ. Yes, those names refer to different things. And this Saturday we will unravel what they are and how it all relates to Christmas.
Trapped in Sense Consciousness
This week, we are exploring Sense Consciousness. We will discuss what it is, what it means to be trapped in it, how that affects the world around us, and what we can do to find our way out of it.
Law & Order
Everything we experience is governed by the system of Divine Law and Order. This system is incorruptible but also largely unnoticed by most people who are still observing the world from their own limited perspective. Are you ready to expand your perspective to begin to see how to live in accordance with Divine Law, as opposed to being in conflict with it?
The Power of Words
God created the universe and life as we know it with a Divine Word, and that power of creation continues on today with each word we speak, sing, sigh, yell, think or mumble. Words have creative power. If we are not continually mindful of that power, we are a mindlessly creating the life and experiences we currently have. Do you know how powerful your words are?
What is “Good”?
When we look at the relative state of goodness that we experience each day, it pales in comparison to the Divine Goodness that is all around us. Rev. Shad discusses why the relative goodness around us is waning and how it compares to the state of Divine Goodness.
Ministers’ Panel: Relationships
“Our relationships with each other can be a vehicle for our unity and a vehicle for our entrapment.” They can be vehicles for bringing us more into the universe, into the moment, into the flow of things, or they can be vehicles for isolating us more into our separateness.
Divine Intelligence
Scientists are beginning to discover that the universe might not only be intelligent, but may also be self-aware. If you knew the universe and everything in it was self-aware, would it change the way you live?
Christianity, Spiritually Interpreted
Around 1920 the founders of the Unity movement were put into a position where they needed to decide if Unity was Christianity or not. Their response is what gave clarity and direction to the movement at large and also gives clarity and direction to our lives today.
