S3E19-Birthing Consciousness with Reverend Rafe Ellis

The secret of grace is contact with the Infinite Invisible, the universal center of being within us. This is the experience of the Christ. In mystical literature, this spiritual experience is called Illumination, Cosmic Consciousness, or Christ-Consciousness; in the New Testament, it is spoken of as being “born again,” or rebirth. ~Joel Goldsmith, The Art Meditation, p. 10

S3E18-Is There REEEeeeealy Only One? with Reverend Rafe Ellis

"While we have all these differences in our theologies, (they are all good, all part of the unity too), we have to start with the necessary base fundamental unity in all things, over all things, through all things, and which IS all things. Brahma is all." ~Ernest Holmes The Philosophy of Ernest Holmes, Pg. 43 Join us for an exploration of our beliefs of Wholeness ~vs~ Duality.

S2E17-Behold ALL Things Are New Including YOU with Reverend Bonnie Anderson

S3E12-Thought and Non-Thought with Reverend Rafe Ellis

The distinction between what is real in physical form and experience versus what is mere thought and therefore imaginary or illusory is absolutely necessary, not only for success in practical affairs but also if we are in the long run even to maintain our sanity.

S3E10-Thought and Ingelligence with Reverend Rafe Ellis

The understanding of whether or not any particular thought is relevant or fitting requires the operation of an energy that is not mechanical, not memory, not predictable. The energy of intelligence or Mind is experienced as an act of perception completely free of yet related to the process of thought.

S3E9-Reality and Knowledge as Process with Reverend Rafe Ellis

The notion that reality is to be understood as process is an ancient one going back to Heraclitus’s awareness that “everything flows”. Not only is everything changing, but all IS flux. That is to say that what is is the process of becoming itself.
