July 5, 2026 July theme: Freedom through the Power of Decision Viktor Frankl wrote in his famous book, Man's Search for Meaning , that our final freedom, that which can never be taken from us, is our power to think and respond as we choose.  Interestingly, he came to this conclusion while held in a Nazi concentration camp. His revelation of freedom within the confines of prison, along with in...

May 17, 2026 Talk Title:  What Story Am I Listening To? Speaker: Kathianne Lewis, DD  The universe is made up of stories, according to Joseph Campbell. Yet we don’t always pause to truly listen—to our circumstances or the stories we tell ourselves. As we begin to notice, we move toward self-mastery.

May 10, 2026 Carlos Castaneda writes, “In the universe there is an immeasurable, indestructible force which shamans call intent, and everything that exists in the entire cosmos is attached to intent by a connecting link.”  When we rest into this truth, we begin to sense that our highest intentions are always rooted in love—unselfish, expansive, and inclusive by nature. As we gently release our att...

April 3, 2026 Good Friday is often seen as a day of sorrow, yet in the metaphysical tradition it becomes a doorway to transformation. This talk reinterprets the final days of Jesus not as a story of suffering, but as a demonstration of spiritual courage, surrender, and renewal. By viewing these events symbolically, we explore how each of us can release limiting patterns, rise above old beliefs, an...

April 5, 2026  Easter reminds us that renewal begins from within. Each of us carries a Divine seed—an inner potential that grows as we nurture it with intention, practice, and conscious choice. This Easter we will explore how we cultivate that spiritual life so it becomes visible in our actions and awareness. As one of our songs affirms, “I’m not what happened to me, I’m what I choose to be,” and...

March 29, 2026   Sunday’s talk will use the simple act of weeding as a powerful metaphor for personal growth and prosperity. Just as a garden can’t thrive when choked by unwanted plants, our lives can’t flourish when cluttered with limiting beliefs, outdated stories, and habits that drain our energy. It will be a grounded, (pun intended) practical, and inspiring reminder that thriving begins with...

March 15, 2026 Speaker: Kathianne Lewis, DD This Sunday’s talk will invite listeners to see the earliest signs of spring—buds swelling on bare branches, birds returning, light stretching a little longer each day—as personal messages of encouragement. Across cultures, the turning of the season has symbolized renewal, alignment, and unseen support. By paying attention to these subtle shifts, we begi...

March 8, 2026 Speaker: Kathianne Lewis, DD Sunday’s lesson will address the astonishing force of the spoken word—how language doesn’t just communicate but creates.

February 22, 2026 Most religions agree that God is Love, so any belief that God would deny Divine Grace to any group of people leads folks down the road of judgment and hate. This is not part of the Divine plan and creates a toxic world for all to live in. Let’s love more and be part of the solution.   Speaker: Kathianne Lewis, DD www.
