Major League or Minor League - Greta Counts RscP

Are you majoring in the minors of your life?  Do you give your attention to minor disappointments and miss the major successes?  Chance or accident is not responsible for the things that happen to you, nor is predestined fate the author of your experiences. It is your subconscious impressions that determine the conditions of your world.  When minor disappointments and challenges are magnified, we can easily lose sight of what matters most.  Join Coach Greta to learn how to minimize the majors in your life.

Your Spiritual Bank Account - Dr. Bob Deen

 Are prosperous? Wealthy? Have all you want and experiencing an ever increasing flow of money? If not there is something for you to know, something for you to do, and something for you to become. Find out what!

Health Is an Inside Job - Rev Bob Deen

Do you seem to be a victim of your body; of the disease trends flowing through our culture? Does it seem that you have no control or influence over what is happening to you physically, mentally, or emotionally. Daily we are bombarded with the idea that we are all victims of one kind or another. WE ARE NOT. One of the most important contributions the New Thought movement brings to the world is the truth that we are not victims, not even of our bodies. Health is our birthright and something we have a great deal of control over. Join us to explore greater health than you have yet known. 

Trust Me - Rev Paul Gonyea

here are a lot of other words that come to mind when we talk about trust; words like respect, and acceptance, and sharing and communication. Words like friendship, and honesty, and forgiveness and confidence. And all these things definitely come into play.
But the word that actually makes it possible for us to completely open ourselves up to another person, without fear or suspicion, is “oneness.” In other words, a truly trusting relationship can only exist as a relationship between equals. Two people, or two countries, or two religions or two political parties, will only begin to trust one another when they learn to see each other as an extension, or a reflection, of themselves

You are Never Alone - Rev Bob Deen

Holidays like Mother's and Father's day can be a time of joyful celebration or sad remembrance and many combinations thereof. Whatever your experience now or ever, join us this week as we establish in consciousness that regardless of what has gone before or seemed to be; you are never alone. I am never alone. No one has been or ever has to be alone! This awareness that we are the oneness of the Father/Mother Life that supplies us with all that we need to live our lives  happy, joyous, and free. 

Listen to the Radio. - Rev Paul Gonyea

In both a physical and a metaphysical sense, we are all extremely sophisticated transmitters and receivers. We constantly have thoughts coming into us, from somewhere, and we are constantly expressing many of those thoughts outward through our words and actions. Not only that — we are also completely immersed in what the physicists use to call “the Cosmic ether.” That means there’s energy everywhere. At any given moment, there are all sorts of different waves going through us — light waves, both visible and invisible; sound waves both audible and inaudible; and all sorts of other energy, including radio, television, streaming music and cell phone signals. And most of this is stuff we can’t even see, even though it still affects us twenty-four hours a day. But we also have come to understand that this is not just a one-way street; a lot of these things we can affect simply by using our intelligence to direct the laws that govern their existence.

Questions Have Answers! - Rev. Dr, Bob Deen

On Sunday June 3rd, bring your questions to the Sunday Celebration at CSL Midtown. You will have an opportunity to write a question on a card before the celebration which will be passed along to Dr. Bob. He  will construct a talk from the questions.  This is a great opportunity to ask that question that you have wished you had a venue for asking. Whether you are a member, regular attendee, or first time guest you are invited to participate. Some view this as an opportunity to stump the minister. Others see as an opportunity to hear what questions others in the group may have about the center, the teaching, or the application of Spiritual Principles to everyday life. Whatever the expectation this promises to be an enjoyable experience of thought, feeling, and insight. Ultimately of course, the answers already reside within you.

The Gift of Joy! - Rev Dr Bob Deen

Life gives us deep powerful resources that comfort us in the painful places and carry us aloft in our happiness. This Gift of Joy is more than simple happiness, more than feeling giddy with laughter, and more than a way to avoid the challenges that confront us. It is a deep recognition that the one creative source has already given us all that there is to receive, Life, Love, Light, Power, Peace, and Beauty. Joy is the final gift that sustains us through all things and allows us to connect with all the other gifts. We can cultivate and nurture our experience of Joy in our everyday living.

Somtimes You Get What You Want - Rev Angela Harmon

My talk titles often come from a movie or a song. I actually heard this line in conversation with a friend recently, “sometimes you get what you want”. Her new beau said it to her, happy having one another in search of relationship. The phrase later reminded me of a song I’d heard in the movie “The Big Chill” performed by the Rolling Stones titled, “You can’t always get what you want, but you get what you need”
