“The Magic of Praise”
Praise works such miracles that we may think of it as being magical in its action. Quite often in its work it seems to bring the supernatural to bear upon situations which appear unsolvable. We have seen praise literally transform people and things. We have seen it redeem one from the very throes of disease and lack. Praise is a magical something which bears the same relation to a starved soul that water bears to a dried-up sponge.

“Heart to Heart: The Sacred Art of Deep Connection”
Despite being more ‘connected’ than ever, most feel isolated. There is an epidemic of yearning for the kind of authentic human connection that truly nourishes the soul, yet much of our discourse centers on division and separation. Join us as we explore how we can shift from the head to the heart and connect consciously to build bridges to love, creating sacred space where hearts can truly meet.

“A Heart Filled with Hope”
The first Sunday of Advent represents hope. The candle is often called “The Prophecy Candle.” It is also the beginning of the church year. The first Sunday of Advent is the hope that during this sacred season in your life is an opportunity to create new promises, new dreams, and new hope. It is a call for a profound belief in one of the 12 powers that Charles Fillmore our cofounder in Unity identified – Faith.

“Behold, I Make All Things New: Becoming the New Human”
Scripture speaks of God making “all things new” – but what does this mean for us today? On this third Sunday of Advent – Gaudete, the Sunday of Joy – we have the opportunity to celebrate not just the coming Christ child, but the new human that is being born within each of us.
In this season of rebirth, anticipation, and hope, we are invited to discover what it means to live differently – to embody the love and unity that Christ modeled for us. We can open ourselves to see with new eyes, love with open hearts, and respond to our world with wisdom from Divine connection. Through ancient wisdom and modern insight, we’ll uncover how each of us is being called to participate in this great awakening – to become the seeds of the new earth that begins in our own hearts.

“A New Year, A New Earth”
According to ancient knowledge that is supported by modern science we have been locked into a 26,000-year cycle of Golden Ages descending into Dark Ages and back into new Golden Ages for untold eons. We are now on the threshold of breaking out of that cycle and cocreating with God a never-before-seen world of beauty and divine splendor. There are so many people on the planet today because our souls wanted to both witness and assist Mother Earth and all of humanity cocreate with God Heaven on Earth.
