Creating an Empowered Life
Write By:slcaadmin
This week I want to wrap up our month long series on Creativity by talking about living an empowered life. (You can find the video of last Sunday’s service here) All of the messages this month were inspired in part by the book of the month The Sun Does Shine by Anthony Ray Hinton and Laura Love Hardin (order your copy here) It’s about a man, Anthony, who was wrongly convicted of a murder he did not commit, and who lived on Death Row for 30 year! The book telegraphs the journey......

Living in Choice

Last week we talked about how to create a new story (find the link to the blog entry here) and this week I want to talk about how to Live In Choice (click here for video of the Sunday message and service.) “Any creation of Infinite Intelligence would have to be intelligent” – Raymond Charles Barker You are the byproduct of the infinite intelligence of the universe and as such are an agent of this intelligence. Part of that intelligence that is moving through you is the freedom to choose your thoughts. ......

Creating a New Story
Write By:slcaadmin
Last week we talked about the freedom of co-creation (you can read that blog entry here). Picking up where we left off – this week I want to talk about the capacity we have t write a new story (you can access video of the sermon here). Story is the most powerful creative tool we have. Our society honors great story tellers, whether in novel form, Cinema, Broadway or television. We consider those who have mastered the craft to be the most talented and creative among us. And if you are like......

Do you feel stuck, or like the “pause” button of your life is pushed, and you don’t know how to get moving again? There are three words that can help to not only get you moving again, but get you on the road to your greatest success. I recently participated in a radio interview publicity tour for my latest book, My Life Contract. The book is about creating goals, staying on track, keeping focused, and seeing results through a simple program that I had developed over years in my life. To prepare......

Healing Through Parenting
Write By:slcaadmin
My teen-age years were filled with emotional wounds and many are still just barely scabbed over. Looking back now, I know that I had many judgments and expectations about what I wanted from life, and perceptions of what actually happened as good or bad. I have the luxury of looking back with wisdom and see that none of it was actually bad. I can now see those experiences as blessings and everything that they have created in me, in the present. Then there are those wounds from not yet healed places that seem......

Your Ripple Effect

Six Degrees of Separation Is Not That Far Between You and What Really Matters“The idea that everything is purposeful really changes the way you live. To think that everything that you do has a ripple effect, that every word that you speak, every action that you make affects other people and the planet.”~ Victoria Moran Do you see your life and what you do with it as “purposeful”? With all that is happening around our planet and between nations it’s easy to perceive our individual selves as insignificant and, in the process,......

Man is made or unmade by himself. By the right choice he ascends. As a being of power, intelligence, and love, and the lord of his own thoughts, he holds the key to every situation. — James Allen As a spiritual mentor, part of my job is to challenge the people I work with to consciously observe their BS (belief system) and challenge any current beliefs they hold that are keeping them stuck in a mental prison of their own making. The moment is quite interesting to witness when they discover that......

Becoming “More” Successful
Write By:slcaadmin
“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.” ~ Maya Angelou It’s common for people talk about ‘becoming more successful’. In fact, Google the phrase and you will find approximately 401 million results. These results offer all kinds of thoughts, and ultimately this article will become one of them. But when it comes to becoming more successful from a spiritual perspective, what does that really mean? And is it possible? Taking a purist stance, one could argue that as a spiritual being you are already perfectly......

WOMEN! YOU ARE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD Let me start by saying that we are the ones we have been waiting for. We are here to shine and bring our gifts, full throttle, to the world. I believe that every woman has come onto this planet as a unique and precious treasure. We are jewels of the universe that cannot be duplicated. We are the healers, teachers, nurturers and guides designed to bring love and compassion to the planet. Encoded within us is a deep and powerful......

Living in the Present Moment

A Fool Will Lose Tomorrow Reaching Back for Yesterday is my favorite line in the 1979 hit song by Dionne Warwick written by Barry Manilow in the song entitled, “I’ll Never Love This Way Again.” And even though I was a child at the time, hearing this song always reminded me how unwise it is to hang on to the past. It is now the year 2015 and we have all been presented with a new opportunity to let go of whatever may be holding us in the past and keeping us......
