There are notions about meditation that are simply not true—there must be absolute silence and no distractions; it must take a long time; your mind races too fast to accomplish its purpose; it’s hard to do. Meditation is the ability to appreciate what is in the present moment. When we do this, it anchors us in the now rather than reverting back to old perceptions of what has been. It opens us up t...

Affirmative prayer is the key tool of the Science of Mind practitioner. It is by affirmative prayer that we acknowledge our relationship with a higher power, and with that knowledge, look at our lives and affirm what that means. This contributes to the health of our bodies, relationships, self-image, and vision. Affirmative prayer is a means to manifest, see clearly, and live authentically.

Perhaps the greatest promise of Science of Mind is not only in the existence of a higher power but by also improving our relationship with this Power, we can change our lives for the better. This Power is present and willing if we are present to it, ready for renewal.  

Beyond the many plans and goals of our worldly lives, we are all called to a pilgrimage. It is the pathway to the Sacred and to all that is represented by the Christmas manger. Embrace this great journey and actualize ever-greater dimensions of our spiritual birthright.

These words are uttered by distraught George Bailey in the movie as he experiences a crisis. How do we open ourselves more fully in balanced times or crises to feel Divine guidance?  

In this episode, our lead ministers, Michelle Medrano and Josh Reeves check in with each other and discuss the holidays.

Using the storyline from the holiday favorite It’s A Wonderful Life, we explore a deeper commitment to the wonderful aspects of life and the holiday season.

There are spiritual techniques that can take us outside of clock time and into a sense of eternity. These glimpses of eternity help us return to our busy lives with a grander sense of a time that is not fleeting but Sacred and changeless.  This may be what we long for this holiday season.

Thanksgiving is focused on a singular spiritual practice—gratitude—one of the greatest spiritual practices because it can transform consciousness. But it can also be misunderstood, with many levels of how to give thanks and some are more creative and inspiring than others.

Dr. Barry gives a passionate message about the power of kindness to ourselves and others. And our younger generation will share their talents and dedication at this special youth service.

The stars are always out but the glare of our everyday world obscures our sight to see them. Still, true vision isn’t just sight. It’s the deep knowing and remembering that the stars are still there. Your inner constellation of truth is always right there to help you make the connection and lead with light.

In this episode, our lead ministers, Michelle Medrano and Josh Reeves check in with each other and discuss the midterm elections.

We all share the same space, but what makes up your constellation of inner light may be different from mine. Regardless, we shine! Like stars in the sky, we don’t need another star to dim its light to shine our own. Nor do we need to hide our light in order for others to reach their potential. There is enough room for all of us and the best way to help other stars is to shine.

We are all one. None of us are the same. This Divine contradiction, on one hand, is the activity of a primordial principle. On the other hand, the Infinite can only express itself as unique. As an expression of the Infinite, are you willing to embody your total uniqueness, in honor of the One?

The idea of being who you are meant to be may at first inspire a feeling of destiny, yet, what it really means is what happens when we live in harmony with our inner constellation of truth. There is so much in life that can seem to inspire us to be “unnatural” instead of who we really are. Being who we are meant to be is simply knocking off being anything but.

An important part of leading with light is speaking your truth. This means not only cultivating your connection with your inner constellation but also learning to have faith in your own voice. In each moment, you either know what to say or are powerful enough to admit that you don’t know what to say. Yet, you can powerfully speak from what resonates within you.

Throughout our life journey, we are called to let go of the lesser we might discover and embody the greater—within life and within ourselves.

In this episode, our lead ministers, Michelle Medrano and Josh Reeves discuss the war in Ukraine.

On the 21st anniversary of 911 and the attack on the World Trade Center, we come together in the name of peace on Earth to explore and embody how the principles of our teachings can help us contribute to greater peace that can be a healing balm for humanity.

There is great courage in moving from chaos, anger, disappointment, pain, and violence to peace; it is not a passive effort. As each one of us embodies courage and attains greater inner peace, we benefit our own living and the living of others in our personal circle and everywhere.

We can have some misconceptions about what it means to struggle especially the idea when one struggles, it means there is something wrong. Could struggle also mean there is something good taking place? Could it be a sign of growth, a symbol of commitment, or an alarm reminding you that you are right where you should be? If we can stop struggling down and learn to struggle up, we can rise to new le...

Real health and authentic well-being begin with self-acceptance and they grow with self-understanding, reachable goals, and a commitment to doing and being the best we can be. Real health and authentic well-being are knowing that doing our best is more than enough.
