The Balance Point

As Sally Wells notes, “Balance occurs in the living moment.  It is a self-correcting natural order, an intelligence which is built into us.  It IS us. This means all is working together for your good,  for your growth.  The system (which is you) is perfect.  What may seem to oppose you is also you, asking for integration.  Can we anchor in truth and trust this process?  Yes!  Balance is our very nature, and it is realized through meditation.  Don’t just sit there, do no-thing.”

Where Work and Play Converge

Reverend Ruth Barnhart notes, “God has a sense of humor.  This is a line I hear frequently that always gives me pause.  What about all the serious conditions and experiences of life, the pain and suffering?  How does one take things lightly and still honor what is happening?  How do we relate to playfulness as a quality of our true selves?”

The Divine Ideal

Sally Wells notes, “Most of us would choose to see love and connection everywhere all the time, would we not? So then, why is it that we do not?  In this talk we will discuss The Living Moment and what it means to live truly awake, now.”

Connection Is More Important than Content

Reverend Gregory Toole notes, “So much of our relationships evolve around content: facts, data, opinions and beliefs.  Yet relationships are really about connection.  We’ll explore how to have more heart-centered relationships that transcend content and take us into greater closeness with those in our sphere.”

United We Stand

So they say we are one.  If this is true, how does it affect my life?  What about all the people who don’t believe this or the conditions that don’t reflect this? What does spiritual  living mean and how  do I do it?

The Holiness of Wholeness

As Silvia Gilmour observes, “As I was soul-searching my perception of unity, I found that I believe it means harmonious wholeness.  Whether thinking of it in our own individual lives; in community with everyone and everything- everywhere, honoring life in all its diversity; as well as our innate connection with Spirit, I am convinced that true unity is a sacred state of being unbroken.  We’ll be looking at all three of those notions conceptually, interspersed with poetry to bolster my conviction of the holiness of wholeness.”

Unity - Beyond Duality

Sally Wells observes, “There is a Unity which contains all:  whole, unbroken and unbreakable.  This Reality is ever present at the center of your being.  How do we live from this heart level of being?  Are we ready and willing to give up our relative realities to know that - Unity beyond duality?”

Speaking Only the Truth

Reverend Ruth Barnhart asks, “What do we believe and do we actually know it is so?  We can promote honesty but what informs our words? Opinions, Facts? Can we recognize the difference?  And how do I find truth when your beliefs collide with mine? Oh the conundrum of oneness, how are we to proceed?”

Taking care, Being Care

Reveren. Ruth Barnhart, CSL Minister of Santa Rosa, asks:  “Do I have to take care of myself in order to care for others? Is caring for myself a selfish act? Where is the balance, how do I know when I am neglecting myself or neglecting caring for others in my world?  Is it possible that the spiritual life is about sacrificing ourselves in order to love and serve our world?  Is there a road map, a list of things to do?  Let’s explore the meaning of “love your neighbor as yourself.”
