S3E16-Into Me I See with Reverend Rafe Ellis

We typically think of intimacy in terms of our relationships with other people. Join us as we explore the benefits of establishing and nurturing an intimate relationship with our Divine Self.

S3E15-Breaking the Habit of Habits with Reverend Rafe Ellis

Habits are the behavioral evidence of repeated memories. New Thought offers us a technology for breaking the habit of habits.

S3E14-Are You Living in the Moment of the Memory with Reverend Rafe Ellis

The majority of our thought comes into our awareness as a response or reaction to some stimulus in our environment, this is memory. New thoughts come into our awareness when we see beyond memory to what is present in the moment.

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.

E2E8-An Experiment With Language and Thought with Reverend Rafe Ellis

Join us for an inquiry into the role of language in fragmentation and wholeness.

S3E7-Western and Eastern Insights into Wholeness with Reverend Rafe Ellis

In the development of civilization, humanity’s views were essentially of wholeness rather than fragmentation. Perhaps identifying the path of fragmentation can lead us back to wholeness.

S3E5-How to Use Community with Reverend Jenna Wexler

In The Science of Mind, Ernest Holmes wrote that: “One of the greatest difficulties in the new order of thought is that we are likely to indulge in too much theory and too little practice. As a matter of fact, we only know as much as we can prove by actual demonstration.” Community is a proving ground!!

S3E6-Fragmentation and Wholeness with Reverend Rafe Ellis

We begin our exploration of David Bohm’s “Wholeness and the Implicate Order”. Fragmentation leads to a general confusion of the mind and creates seemingly endless problems while interfering with a clarity of perception that enables solutions. Healing comes as we shift to a one-ness of the thinking process and its content, similar in key ways to the one-ness of observer and observed.
