Tonight with Rev. Russ Legear and Christopher Fritzsche - The Well of Inspiration


When I first began my spiritual path it seemed as though I had to work toward some goal where I would become enlightened and transcend all my human limitations.

I would love it if that were possible, but the truth is that no amount of spiritual practice will change that I am human. In fact, my spiritual practice has deepened my experience of being human. I've found that authentic spiritual practice embraces the realization that there is always more to learn and more life to experience. It's the daily recognition that our universe is filled with infinite possibilities, and that I can choose how many or how few of those possibilities I want to embrace. 

My humanity reminds me, then, that seeking out spiritual inspiration and connection is a choice that I get to make every day. Because if I don't, I find that life loses its spark, and my mind closes itself off to what is truly possible. 

The good news is that there is no limit to the inspiration and connection and possibility that Spirit can share with us. Really, the only limit is how much we can welcome in our heart. 

Tonight we are going to dive into some practices that can tap into the spiritual inspiration that is already within us, so that we can remain open to infinite possibilities and ground ourselves in connection with Spirit. I'm looking forward to sharing tools that will help you keep your spiritual batteries charged throughout 2024. 

See you all at the Center at 7pm!

Much love,

-Russ

You Determine Your Welfare - Special Wednesday "Pulpit-Swap" Service with Dr. Edward and Rev. Russ

The idea that you determine your welfare speaks to the Science of Mind idea that well-being grows from the choices we make in thought, practice, and community.  Using the book "Basic Ideas of Science of Mind" as our guide, our Wednesday evenings have been exploring the use of our mind, emotions, and actions, to contribute to our spiritual welfare. This Wednesday, join Dr. Edward Viljoen and Rev. Russ Legear at a special location to continue the exploration.  Some context:  Each year our community makes space for our neighbors at the local synagogue to gather more fully for the High Holy Days. In addition to being a gesture of hospitality, it carries a deeper reminder that our welfare is shaped by the choices we make together.  We, in turn, hold our Wednesday Evening service in their beautiful synagogue and you're invited to join us. Science of Mind teaches that the Creative Power of Life responds to the quality of our consciousness, and through spiritual practice we ...

"Spirit Is An Artist" - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

  Every breath we take, every new friend we make; the tallest snowy mountaintop to the darkest depths of the sea--all is an act of creation. In fact, because Spirit is all there is, that means that we, too, are endlessly creating. Whether we know it or not.  In tonight's Wednesday Evening Service, we continue our exploration of the Ten Core Concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit with the third--the creative nature of Spirit. We'll share in spiritual exercises designed to grow your awareness of your creative nature so you can tap into it to paint the life of your dreams. And all will be wrapped in an atmosphere of music, freshly baked bread, and loving community.  See you soon! -Russ

"Living On a Prayer" - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

  Whether he knew it or not, Bon Jovi was affirming a powerful prayer in his iconic song, "Living On a Prayer." One of the lyrics goes like this: We've got to hold on to what we've got Cause it doesn't make a difference If we make it or not We've got each other and that's a lot For love - well give it a shot   Whooah, we're half way there Livin on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear Livin on a prayer Tonight in our continuing series exploring the ten core concepts of the Science of Mind and Spirit, we will explore prayer--known as Spiritual Mind Treatment in the Science of Mind--and how we can use it to shift our mind from a focus on all that appears wrong, toward a focus on life that is rooted in compassion, love, and possibility.  See at the Center at 7pm! -Russ
