Are you in denial? And is that a bad thing? Do you feel frustrated because your affirmations aren’t manifesting as quickly as you’d like them to? Rev. Judy talks about denial, how it relates to doing a spiritual bypass, and how to become more proficient in your spiritual work so that you become the powerful manifester you were meant to be!

“The Law of Divine Adjustment” is your Spiritual Reset Button. When something is reset, it is moved back to its original space. Our original space is our Divine Essence. It is the amazing Presence and Power and Energy of the Creator Of All That IS that expresses in and through all of life. Regardless of the circumstances, no matter how dire they may seem, whether it is mental, emotional, or physical, “The Law of Divine Adjustment” will see you through. This Law will regulate, balance, and bring order into every aspect of your life and circumstances.

Am I truly a child of God, the old man in the sky? Was I created in his image??? What about when I do something sneaky? Is he watching me and keeping notes, like Santa Claus?

The message is about how we can all resurrect our lives no matter where we are. It speaks to the fact we are all powerful beings who have the ability to create with Spirit to make our dreams come true. As Meister Eckhart reminds us, “What good is it to me if this eternal birth of the Divine Son takes place unceasingly, but does not take place within myself?”

Have you ever let fear stand in the way of something your heart truly desired? That is something we all do, probably more often than we would like to admit. In this talk, Dr. Michele will walk you through a winding road she recently traveled from fear to fruition and the life-changing spiritual growth that occurred along the path.

We humans have amazing intellectual tools for problem solving. We can become reliant on our intellect and proud of our ability to “figure things out,” but what happens when we have a situation where “figuring it out” just doesn’t work? There is a deeper intelligence available to us that delivers divine solutions. Let’s explore some practical methods for problem solving with Spirit!

Can we be free from the past? And if so, what comes next? This morning we will explore freedom and how that leads to a new day and a new way of being

Every day is an opportunity to focus on personal wholeness or the seeming lack thereof. Do our errors in judgment define us or our successes? That choice determines the character of our lives. Making better decisions changes everything.

The Path of Fulfillment walks with each and All. It is always available; It is your Higher Self.

Pain acts as a pushing force that compels us to address discomfort or challenges, while the vision of a desired outcome serves as a pulling force that inspires us to move forward and make positive changes in our lives. By recognizing the interplay between pain and vision, we can harness their combined influence to propel personal growth, resilience, and well-being.

It is said that “love isn’t what you say; love is what you do.” Consider that for ourselves as well as others. That doing might make us uncomfortable: changing anything, even if it is for the better; standing in our truth; saying YES and even saying NO. We want to be comfy, warm and fuzzy. Sometimes it works. But sometimes it doesn’t. The comfy starts to be not so comfy. And the still small voice slowly gets louder until it becomes “divine discontent.” This can happen in our work, our relationships, and our day to day experiences. Just going along to get along doesn’t allow us to lead wholehearted lives. The divine discontent keeps tapping us on the shoulder, pulling our sleeve, reminding us in a loving but more and more forceful way that our lives could be different and better if we were willing to step into our greater good. Wednesday is Valentine’s Day, when we remember and honor the experience of LOVE–for others but also for ourselves. How important it is to stand in integrity with ourselves.

You have the power to consciously shape your experience of change. Embrace it as an opportunity for personal growth and transformation, let being uncomfortable be your guide! Start today and unlock your true potential for a fulfilling and joyous life!

Serving as an example of love and light in the world feels so good! Rev. Kathy Mastroianni will share the positive and timeless wisdom and history of Dr. Ernest Holmes from the Science of Mind Archives with us, along with resources to access it. As we bring the energy of “A Grand Rising” into the rest of the year, let’s remember that our voices matter. Collectively, we are changing the world.

In every moment we have the opportunity to start life all over again. However, it’ll be the same as the old life if we don’t try some new things. When we look at new life in the world, it’s adorable and precious but also usually pretty wobbly and clumsy. Are you willing to try something new in order to create a new life, even if you have to be as graceful as a new puppy learning to walk while you do so? We will talk about the Creative Process and how we need to continually learn from our experiences in order to create Newness.

As we begin to settle into a new year let’s root and reboot by deepening our connection to the One Source in back of all life and become readiness strong by uncovering our Soul Contract through Love and Gratitude.

2023 is complete; it evolved into 2024. Time seems linear to us, while in physics all time occurs simultaneously. Spiritually speaking, the present moment is all there is. Like our belief it’s a new year, nothing actually changed except our perspective. In life nothing changes until our perception does. Understanding this makes all the difference.

Each year many of us declare our New Year Resolutions. Let’s switch it up this year by going deeper. When we resolve to live with and as wholeness, to live free from non-Life-Affirming attachments, to live wisely with humility, justly with compassion, lovingly with fidelity, and gratefully with generosity, only then can we take the needed actions that will create a World that works for ALL. Let us uphold this vision and daily renew it in our thoughts, words, feelings, and actions.

It’s Christmas Eve! The birth of Jesus is just the beginning of a story that serves as a powerful metaphor for our own spiritual evolvement. In this season of love, light, and gift-giving, let’s explore the gift of Christ Consciousness. What does the birth story tell us about our divine nature? In the “manger place” of our own heart, the inner Christ—God’s perfect idea of us—is waiting to be born!

What better time of year to embrace our wholeness! Living in the world makes it easy for us to forget who we really are and who we came here to be. No matter what we think or feel, our spiritual truth is that we are always whole. This season let’s renew our covenant with ourselves by remembering who we are and consciously reconnecting with our inner beings. The gift has already been given. It’s up to us to enjoy it!

Sure, the sacred can be found in meditation; but also, when standing in line at the grocery store and driving in traffic! This week we will explore Sacred Oneness, in both the expected and the unexpected.
