January 12, 2020-Intentional Living, Part 2
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen
An essential aspect of living our lives intentionally is to have a compelling vision. All innovation, all positive growth, begins with a vision (think the light bulb, sending astronauts to the moon, social justice.) Listen in and learn how to connect with, and "catch" that highest vision for your life, as well as an inspired focus for you this year.
January 5, 2020-Intentional Living: White Stone Service
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen
Now that we have released the things that were holding us back from living fully (in our Burning Bowl service last week) we are now free to create anew. We are free to create our lives with Intention -- to live intentionally. Join us this Sunday as we receive from our inner wisdom the quality that will fuel our vision for 2020. Start this year with vision...and the power to realize that vision!
December 29, 2019-Burning Bowl Service
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen & Rev. Rosemary Hyde
Join us for our end-of-year Unity tradition, the Burning Bowl Service. This is your opportunity to release anything that has been holding you back from the experience of full and complete joy. Our Future Ministers Team will be here to inspire and guide you through the process of identifying what might be holding you back in life. Then you will be invited to symbolically release it from your life by dropping a paper with that identified aspect into the fire of the Burning Bowl.
December 22, 2019-And The Whole Earth Awaits...
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Rosemary Hyde
Mystically and metaphysically, the Biblical Christmas story, with its lights, angelic song, star of the east, and spiritual rejoicing stirs something deep within us, whether we believe in the Christ child as a historical figure or not. Let us think about this beautiful story as our own spiritual journey, realizing that the lights and song of this tale of Divine Love really document our own progress along the path of light. Let us rejoice in our minds and hearts as we discover that the star shines and the angels sing every time we take a next step on our spiritual journey, and we are wonderfully loved and celebrated by the Universe all along the way.
December 15, 2019-The Birth of Universal Awareness
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Rosemary Hyde
As Christmas approaches, what are we looking forward to? Modern Biblical scholarship has proven that not only was Jesus of Nazareth not born on December 25, he may not ever have been born at all. We must turn to understanding the metaphysical symbolism of stories in scripture to make sense of “Christmas” beyond shopping, overeating, and crowded travel dates. But despite historians’ debunking of the beautiful traditional Christmas myth, the story of what we are awaiting and preparing to celebrate is still deeply beautiful and moving.
December 8, 2019- Love: The Energy that Connects
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen
Last week we talked about how we can open to having more miracles in our lives by first shifting our perception from fear to love. Fear is the predominant energy of this world, so shifting into our true essence of love takes conscious, intentional effort. Listen in as Rev. Victoria shares how we can make that shift and live in the energy Charles Fillmore wrote about: "Love is the pure essence of Being that binds together the whole human family." We then take that love and find ways to share it with our human family.
December 1, 2019-Finding the Miracle in the Moment
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen
Miracles are not something that happened just in Biblical times, performed only by special Divine Beings. Miracles are, in fact, happening now. They are all around us. And miracles are ours for the taking. We just need to be awake enough to recognize them. Listen in as Rev. Victoria shared how we can stay awake and present to miracles, and thereby create a space for more miracles to blossom in our life.
November 24, 2019-The Magic of Forgiving Ourselves
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Rosemary Hyde
Our creative ability is strengthened when we can legitimately and easily deal with the unconscious doubts about our worthiness that fly around in our minds like spiritual "no see um" bugs at an evening patio event. Loving and appreciating ourselves "just the way we are," to quote our Sunday prayer for our kids (and ourselves), is totally magical. Listen in as Rev. Rosemary Hyde shares this gift with us.
November 17, 2019-Knowing What We Have
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Rosemary Hyde
As humans, our deepest desire is freedom -- freedom to think, to say, to become, to act, to take risks, to explore, to find, to adopt. As we are preparing to celebrate our season of gratitude in 2019, are we truly aware of the resources helping us to be and to become? This Sunday, we will look at what that freedom of Being means to us, and our greatest resource to attaining it.
November 10, 2019-The Secret to Happiness
- Time: 11:00AM - 12:15PM
- Speaker: Rev. Victoria Loveland-Coen
In Unity, and most progressive spirituality, we understand that happiness is not something to be "achieved" and that no one can give it to us. We understand that happiness is within us. But we don't always know how to connect with that "inside happiness" and open to the experience of lasting joy in our lives. Listen in as Rev. Victoria shares how we can remove the blocks to the natural flow of joy and realign ourselves with our innate happiness.
