Expanding our Container for Good - Wednesday Evening Service with Rev. Russ

How big is your container for good? How much good can you acept in your life?

Science of Mind teaches that we are always surrounded by, and infused with, good, but that we can only experience as much good as we are able to accept. Over the years, through spiritual study, I've learned how I can expand my own container for good--my ability to use my imagination to expand beyond the limitations of what I believe to be possible for my life. This practice has led to drastic shifts, and tonight we will share it together to see just how many amazing things are possible when we open to the limitless nature of our imagination.

Join me at 7pm at the Center tonight for some beautiful spiritual practice. I look forward to spending this time with you!

What Do You Believe Now?

Dear Community, I just love this old photo of me and Music Director Christopher Fritzsche. And, I love that I get to work with him at the Center. But that's not the point of this message. :) I invite you to gather with me on Wednesday, November 8th at 7 p.m. for our Evening Service, where I'll talk about my own journey with Science of Mind, which began at a time when the world was less inundated with information. Today, with a deeper understanding of the nuances of human emotion, neurodiversity, social dynamics, and mental health, I find it enriching to revisit and question the ideas that initially drew me in. The concept that our thoughts have creative power prompted me to ask questions and seek out answers that were both invigorating and, at times, challenging. I've come to appreciate an approach that values evidence and personal growth over accepting ideas at face value. Our gathering is open to all, irrespective of individual beliefs about the divine. Instead, we fo

Dr. Edward Viljoen at Wednesday Evening - Recovering from Betrayal: Lessons from Holy Wednesday

Betrayal can leave us reeling, lost in a sea of shattered trust and emotional turmoil. Yet, within the stories we've inherited, there are paths forward, lessons on resilience, and recovery that resonate through time. Holy Wednesday, often overshadowed by the more prominent days of Holy Week, offers profound insights into the nature of betrayal and the steps toward healing. Dr. Edward will talk about the story of betrayal, understanding its impact on our peace, and the steps we may take to heal from it. The Story of Betrayal Holy Wednesday marks a pivotal moment in the Easter narrative—the day Judas Iscariot chose to betray Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. This act wasn't a mere transaction; it was a breach of deep, personal trust. Judas, one of the twelve disciples, had walked alongside Jesus, sharing in the journey, the teachings, and the miracles. His betrayal set in motion the events leading to the crucifixion, a cornerstone of the Easter story. Understanding the Impact B

TONIGHT - Is the Darkness Getting to You? Come Brighten Up and Lean into Wholeness - December 6, 2023

I am thrilled to invite our community to a special midweek service at 7 pm at The Center. It's not just any gathering; it's an opportunity to connect, reflect, and find solace together. We have a soulful evening planned, and as you step into The Center, you'll be greeted with the aroma of freshly baked bread, a symbol of warmth and sustenance. There will also be tea and cookies, and exploring spirituality is always easier when there are cookies. (That's a direct quote from our speaker, Rev. Russ Legear.) Meditation Music Message Music has always been a bridge to the spiritual realm, and tonight, we have arranged for some beautiful melodies to fill the air, setting the tone for meditation and reflection. We'll also have a spiritual message from our very own Rev. Russ Legear. He will delve into the theme of "Spiritual Wholeness and the Gifts of Darkness." As we approach the solstice, Rev. Legear's words will explore the courage that can come from acknowl
