Each Unique; All The Same
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Feb 5, 2017: There is only One Life: God's Life, and all creation is born of that Perfect Life. Like a beautiful garden, with many colors, shapes, and designs expressing their specialness in harmony with all other manifestations of Nature, so we, as individually-designed, yet uniquely formed divine-human beings, radiate the One Life in many distinctive, and exceptional ways. In our desire to understand, respect, and appreciate one another, we experience our sweet unity and celebrate our unrepeatable individuality.

Let's Put It To Work
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Jan 29, 2017: This talk is based on Ernest Holmes' The Science of Mind, Introductory Chapter IV, "How to Use It." Once we understand that there is a Presence which loves and nurtures unconditionally and a Law which responds accurately and dependably, we are able to enter authentically into real transformation of our hearts and minds and bring greater spiritual magnificence into our everyday, human existence. It is our honor and our privilege to rise up in consciousness and do the Work we are here to do, knowing it is possible because we are never...

So Generous And So Agreeable
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Jan 22, 2017: It is time we understood that the Universe withholds nothing from us; rather, Its gifts are given continuously and provide fulfillment, to the degree that we are able to accept them. Our beliefs become our reality, as the Law of Mind faithfully produces our deepest, truest ideas and attitudes. Once we realize that, in Ernest Holmes' words, "It is the nature of the Universe to give us what we are able to take. It cannot give us more. It has given all, we have not yet accepted the greater gift." ~ Science of...

Being The Instrument
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Jan 15, 2017: Universal Creative Intelligence is forever manifesting Itself through the inlet and outlet of our own mentality. As we become clear and willing instruments through which Divine Mind flows, we discover three important things: 1. God is omnipresent and always available to you because you are a spiritual being 2. You can channel all the good of the Infinite into your life and the lives of others by the way you think 3. The Law of Mind ceaselessly acts to bring into manifestation whatever the conscious mind impresses deeply enough upon the subconscious. (Thanks to Claudine...

Here's The Thing
Special guest Rev. Jackie Dougherty, Spiritual Leader for CSL Berks, talk from Jan 8, 2017: We're part of a Universal Wholeness, an Infinite Life, Power and Intelligence. Ernest Holmes chose to call God "The Thing Itself," thus avoiding any anthropomorphic concept of God. This "Thing" is the only thing - the one Substance everything is made of, and the Cause of everything. It is pure Spirit, invisible, without form, yet more real than anything we see. Thomas Troward said, "We cannot account for the things we can see unless we assume the existence of other things we cannot see." And the...

Callings: In Search of an Authentic Life

Saints vs. Sinners
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Oct 30, 2016: As human judgment abates and Divine Compassion comes forth, we become willing and able to see and to celebrate Spirit within all beings. As Meister Eckhart asked of us, "Let God be God in you," eliminating the need to believe anyone could possibly live outside Spirit's Life. Just as the Law of Mind is, "an equal opportunity employee," so the Presence of the Divine equally perceives each individualized expression of Itself as beautiful, whole, and essential to all life . . . no exceptions.

Bringing the Real into the Relative
Rev. Dr. Maxine Kaye, talk from Oct 16, 2016: Knowing that there is only One Power, and that It is a Power for Good, we remember that Creative Intelligence brings every form into being from the Invisible to the visible, and that all creation partakes in the Original Goodness. It is as we focus on the Divine within the form that we realign with First Cause and recognize Spirit's attributes within everything and everyone we encounter. Relative appearances change, while the Absolute always remains true to Itself.
